A review by beastreader
The Fourth Courier by Timothy Jay Smith
3.0
I did like this book. It has the vein of a really, good thriller. There is intrigue, action, and plenty of movement to keep the story from becoming "stale". So, why did I not "love" this book? Well that is because I struggled to find my footing with the characters. There were many and yet none of them fully grabbed me where I could form a strong connection with them. Therefore, it does not matter how good a storyline a book can have; if I the reader can not form a connection with the characters who are supposed to tell and live the story, than, the rest fall to the wayside.
I will admit that the main lead Jay, was engaging. There were times that I did find myself really getting into this book and other times I could become easily distracted. It was like a roller coaster. If I had become fully engaged in this book, I can tell you that it would have been a five star read for me. Thus, I would read another book from this author. Just because I did not love this book does not mean that other readers should not check it out.
