Woo! This book was awesome! It’s actually the first Pendergast book I’ve literally read (and not read as an audio book). To me, I could tell Preston and Child were still in the process of developing Pendy as a character, because his “voice” was not as smooth and refined as it is in later appearances. But, he was still Pendergast! It was nice to get a little bit of back story on him – his wife, not yet moved to NYC, etc.
I thought the ending was pretty good. I had an idea of what was going to happen, although I was wrong with who ended up being the “bad” guy. As with all of the Pendergast stories, they tend to be a bit gory. I wonder if the other Preston/Child novels follow that trend? I’m looking forward to starting the sequel this week.
