A review by jacqueshol
Gideon's Sword by Douglas Preston
3.0
Although the story had its moments, it wasn't as tightly edited as I have become accustomed to with Preston and Child books. I just could've form an opinion of the protagonist, Gideon Crew. I simply didn't "get" him. At times he appeared to be a smooth operator and at other times, he seemed goofy.
In summary, the storyline was good (4/5) and got better towards the end. I found the protagonist confusing and vanilla (2/5). Hence my average rating of 3/5. I am hoping the Gideon character will find his way in the series and that it will get better. I am a huge fan of Preston and Child's Pendergast series and I'm hoping for more of the same in this series.
