If you read Once a Runner and enjoyed it (what runner didn’t like this book), I think you have to read Again to Carthage. That being said, Again to Carthage wasn’t that good. Quenton Cassidy is no longer the quirky college runner that most serious runners can relate to. He has morphed into a hot shot lawyer that can seem to do no wrong, professionally or socially, in spite of a who gives a f%#@ attitude. Then the Marathon he runs at the end seems more like a James Bond thriller (and every bit as hokey) than an inspiring Chariots of Fire I had hoped for. But seriously, you should read it.
