I wasn't crazy about it, but there were a few entertaining moments. I've read much better by Ludlum. ( ) Harrison Ambler lleva dos años encerrado en el psiquiátrico de Parrish Island, centro de alta seguridad donde se destina a aquellos agentes a los que la enfermedad mental ha convertido en una amenaza para la seguridad del país. Pero Ambler, que no ha perdido la cabeza, consigue escapar durante el traslado de un preso que ha sufrido un infarto. De regreso a Washington, el antiguo espía descubre que nadie parece recordr su cara o su nombre, y él mismo es incapaz de reconocerse frente al espejo. Además, los responsables de su encierro se han propuesto darle caza y en esta ocasión la consigna es disparar a matar. Listened to this on my round trip to Arkansas (1000 miles) and it kept me interested. The plot is great. It could probably be a lot shorter if heavily edited, but I think most have come to expect the length from Mr. Ludlum. The main character is supposed to be a hardened operative, so I was surprised that he seemed vulnerable and fell in love easily--I would have though he'd be more cautious. I think there were a few loose threads as well, but there are so many lines in the book that I don't think I kept up well. Written posthumously from notes and outlines left behind by Ludlum, The Ambler Warning was completed by a ghost writer for the estate, as such it does lack the usual oomph that a Ludlum thriller has. There is also a few small problems with the flow of the story, where scenes simply cut off rather than explain how they eventuated, this seems more like lazy writing than a method of building intensity. I also felt the whole memory altering aspect had an air of the Bourne Identity to it, albeit implemented in a different way, perhaps this was why Ludlum hadn't written it whilst alive. Asides for this, it's an alright book, it's certainly engaging once you put aside the short comings and air of deju vu around the circumstances surrounding Harrison Ambler vis-à-vis the Bourne circumstances. I'd give it a 3.5/5, not terrible, but nor was it outstanding, strictly middle of the road good. inga recensioner | lägg till en recension
