After taking 6 weeks to read Ludlum's latest book, Sigma Protocol, which to me is the worst book he has written. Normally, a Ludlum or Clancy book will normally take me only a couple of days and evening to go through. This Ludlum was like a stuck record and kept repeating two improbable themes until the last 100 pages.
I'm looking for a new writer for this type of book.
I've read all of the Clancy novels .. but his latest was a little too "overdone" when it comes to the west against a potentially dangerous foe IMHO.
