I like all James Patterson books, but this one really stands out to me. It was in the year 1096, unlike most of his other books that are from our time. The under dog beating out the powerful duke and falling in love with the lady in waiting. This book has it all, action, adventure, even a love story. This is one of my favorite books by James Patterson.
I like James Patterson books and I LOVED the debut book by Andrew Gross, so I thought this would be a match made in heaven. I didn't care for The Jester at all. I couldn't get through it. I thought it was just me, so I gave it to a friend and she couldn't get through it either.
Yhe best of many James Patterson's books. Recommended this book to my wife's book club and everyone enjoyed it completely. Fast reading and I know you will not put it down once you start reading.
This was really different from the other books I've read. I didn't think I was going to enjoy it at first, but after getting into the characters I really enjoyed it.
Great book! As different from the Cross books and the Murder Club books as are the flying children books. But it still has the Patterson grip on you once you start reading.
