Book Review of The Deserter (Scott Brodie & Maggie Taylor, Bk 1)

The Deserter (Scott Brodie & Maggie Taylor, Bk 1)
reviewed on + 620 more book reviews


Well-plotted, with an interesting setting in the cities and jungles of Venezuela, but with not a single sympathetic character. One main character is an inveterate smart aleck and lech, another is beautiful and capable but weak-willed, and two others are completely out of their minds. Not recommended unless you are already a raving fan of Nelson DeMille.
