Reviews

I loved this book! Unlike anything I've read.

[Eve1972]

This was good, not great. I agree with a lot of the other reviews, that this read very much like a first draft. The characters are very one dimensional and the storyline very linear, that being said, it is a fairly short book and it kept me interested. Steven Spielberg is making it into a movie and I think it is very suited for that format, so should be interesting!

Fun book.

It's difficult to tell if Crichton ever intended this to be published, but for better or worse, it's a fun, over-the-top pirate adventure that was really easy to read.
