Customer Reviews

Unable to put it down!
I've bought Omnibus editions of books before, read one and that was it. This book I thought was not going to be any different. Well let me tell you it was amazingly good. Not just the fact that Harlan Coben is an excellent author his books just keep you hanging on for more. The amusing teaming of Win and Myron brought a smile to my face in more than one place. I read Tell No One first which is the best book I have read in a very long time, twists and turns that didn't stop until the very last page of the book. The same can be said for this Omnibus.
The only thing I feel can be said against it is the idea that Myron Bolitar is a Sports Agent / PI is a little far fetched. Also the Final book I found it a little hard to believe that Myron would go back to playing for the NBA but it was still a good read but possibly the weakest of the three books.
I would reccomend this book if you are going away on holiday as it will keep you glued to it and it's also only one book to carry. If you have read Dennis LeHanne and liked his work then I would also suggest you get this book as it's a similar writing style. I just hope they hurry up and re-publish more of his work as I want to read it all!

Simply fantastic
I'll keep it simple. Harlan Coben is my favourite writer and Myron Bolitar's novels are all full of twists, action, irony and feeling. If you like Patterson, Deaver etc then you will love Coben. In this trilogy we learn about Bolitar's past and the complexities of the present. Gripping yet funny enough to let you see that all the characters are (well, can be anyway!) real and everyone has their own personal problems.

I wasn't able to put it down...
I'm not one who usually likes to read two or more books in a row by any one author. But I still bought this brick of a book. The size of it alone made me keep it in my to-be-read pile for over a month before I picked it up. Then I read it cover to cover in less than a week, followed by the rest of the Myron Bolitar novels published to date, followed by Harlan Coben's other novels. I found them all incredibly good and the perfect crime novels for my liking. Coben mixes the whodunnit with perfectly placed wit, irony and sarcasm. He says what we're all thinking, but that we'd never think to say as cleverly as he does. The unlikely trio of Myron, Win and Esperanza just adds to the entertainment value. They're all exaggerated, but done in a very clever way so that it becomes entertaining rather than annoying. By sticking to setting the novels in his home turf Coben also manages to create a familiarity with the area for his readers. If you've never read a book by Coben before, this is the perfect one to start with. And if you like this, let me just tell you that Coben's books just get better and better. I can't wait to read his next book.
