When All Seems Lost by William C. Dietz

chan_fry's review

2.0

I happened to pick this up not realizing it was the seventh installment in a long-running series. Therefore I was lost through most of it; the author wrote it assuming I’d read all the others. This one convinced me that all books part of a series should be required to say so, right on the front cover: “This is the 7th book in [X] series.” Other things that bugged me: instead of feeling fear or dismay, the characters always felt something physical in their stomachs, which was just weird. And sentence fragments. (See what I did there?) Entire paragraphs in this book. Are constructed of. Sentence fragments. Reading difficulty. (I wrote a longer review in 2010 when I read this.)
