Customer Review: Curious about all the fuss and stacks and stacks of this book everywhere I go, I thought I would listen to the audio version while I do... whatever (I had a feeling it was going to be a dog, and I didn't want to waste time). This book is so poorly written, I wouldn't recommend it to anyone with half... more info
Customer Review: The last several P.C books have been absolutely painful to read...this one, she is back on her game! Maybe not quite as great as some of her earliest Scarpetta endeavors, but stil very, very good. Patricia, now that you have found your way back, PLEASE don't leave us again!
Customer Review: I have been waiting to read this book ever since I heard the Booker buzz and I was not disappointed.

This latest book was a complete and absolute disappointment. The characters were stupid! The plot was stupid! Paying nearly $30 for this book was stupid! In my opinion Ms... more info
Customer Review: This is standard fare for P. D. James. I've been a fan of hers for 20 years. By comparison, this one moves a little slower and has a bit more character and setting detail. Most of her work never gets to the "page-turner" stage. Still, a nice relaxed read that I didn't want to stop until I had... more info
Customer Review: I read "Pillars of the Earth" during the Summer 1991; its plot and characters bled into my life that summer. I carried them around no matter where I went. I so LOVED this novel.
