3 starsTo be frank, this book made me fell asleep a lot. Only some of the moments would make my eyes wide, fresh, and stayed awake. Even then, I can't believe I actually finished this book and it's a relief! No kidding.I liked the action part very much. The violence, the killing - they're very inter...

Mr Ludlum used far too many words.

Really thrilling and amazing thriller. However, I can't consider it a masterpiece, because of the whirlwind of schemes and plots that were sometimes hard to untangle. It was at times so fast-paced and so confusing, I really didn't have any desire to contemplate about what the heck I've just read, be...

Never seen the movie; figured I'd read the book instead. Never read anything by Ludlum at all, and since he's sold umpteen billion copies and spawned a posthumous industry, I thought I should see what it's all about.I was pleasantly surprised - I enjoyed the book very much. It's a thriller that keep...

I decided to finally jump on the Robert Ludlum train and read this. I'd recently also jumped on the Mat Damon train and watched the film trilogy. Yes, where had I been the past few years?

I'd kinda ignored the original three Bourne novels as I'd already seen and enjoyed the movies, but it had always nagged at me that the later Lustbader novels sat at odds with the story I new from the films. Having finally gone back to read the originals I understand why - the movies and the novels a...

Absolute top spy novel. later made in to a film that starts to follow the book, but soon drifts away to a cheap Hollywood story. Ludlums plot is very good and as far as I found, everything falls consequently into the right place.

watched the film before reading the book which was perhaps the problem, because this was nothing like the film!!!..........I found the plot to complicated to follow and constantly got confused and had to re-read parts of it over and over I prefer something easier to entertain me. sorry

So...this is going to be a really short review.I liked the book up until the ending! I really like the trials, trepiaditions that Bourne went through. I liked discovering along with him who he was.I did not like, however, Marie. I thought she was super annoying and it was hard for me to believe that...

Liked the movie a lot better. Far to long for me. Thought this audio would never end. Even the narration by Scott Brick, usually one of my faves, was subpar.
