Ich habe viel mehr erwartet, da mich der Autor mit der Hannibal-Reihe so begeistert hat. In dieses Buch bin ich extrem schwer hineingekommen, da zu viele mir unbekannte Namen auftauchten und ich nicht wusste, wer auf welcher Seite arbeitete. Irgendwann wurde es dann übersichtlicher, aber obwohl es eine interessante Geschichte war, konnte sie mich nie in ihren Bann reißen. Schade.
I have to admit first that the premise didn't sound exiting to me, but when I found out the author of the Hannibal series had an earlier book I just had to read it. Harris' style is already noticable here, although it is improved in later books. It is actually a more quiet book for most of it than one would expect from the premise. It is also very character driven, which I enjoyed. The character moments and the way Harris discusses these people are the best things about the book. They are multilayered and interesting in the sense that I didn't really knew which, if any, side I wished to succeed. Obviously, the good guys, but I didn't "like" them and the terrorists were more fascinating to read about. Like expected, I didn't get that much enjoyment from the actual plot, but I don't think that that's the authors fault for the most part. It's just not my topic.
