irrlicht 's review for:
Still Life With Crows
by Douglas Preston
My fourth ‘Agent Pendergast’ novel and without a doubt one of the most thrilling books I’ve ever read! Absolutely brilliant!
I loved the setting and I really liked Corrie Swanson (Pendergast’s sidekick for this case), and even if the body count is very high and the killings were described a tad too detailed for my liking, this book is absolutely captivating from the beginning to the very, very sad and tragic end.
It’s very rare that I feel sympathy for such a vicious and brutal killer, but in this case I really, really do, and I’m extremely glad that the book ended like it did. Because in the end it all makes sense. Twisted sense, but it’s absolutely comprehensible. Or at least it was for me.
***SPOILER SPOILER SPOILER SPOILER SPOILER SPOILER SPOILER SPOILER***
And even if Sheriff Hazen saved Corrie’s and Pendergast’s life in the end, he will still remain a very unlikable, stupid and intolerant character for me.
