Summary: A Good Action Packed Book!
Comment: This is my fourth David Morrell book and he has written another winner. Chase Malone is strongarmed into painting the portrait of Seinna. Seinna is the wife of Derek Bellasar an international arms merchant. Bellasar is very wealthy and after you read this book you will think of him as being the most evil man on earth. The CIA learns that Belasar wants Chase to paint Seinna so they ask him to do some under cover work on Belasar. Malone agrees and immediately falls head over heels for Sienna. This result in one action sequence after the other. You soon discover that you are never out of the reach of Belasar. The books finally reaches an ending but you will be sitting on the edge of your seat. Buy this book and read it. You will enjoy it.

Summary: A heavy-handed and predictable novel.
Comment: I have read a number of books by Morrell in the past because he has the ability to write extremely exciting action sequences. Unfortunately, in "Burnt Sienna," even the action sequences are not particularly exciting. In fact, this book is weak in a number of ways. The lead character, Chase Malone, a Marine who becomes a world-famous painter, is a macho man with a sensitive soul. Sienna Bellasar, the beautiful heroine, is a somewhat clueless beauty who seems to be oblivious to the fact that she is married to a psychopath. Do beautiful women have to be so dumb? Sienna's husband, Derek, is a "by the numbers" character. He's filthy rich from selling armaments to rogue regimes, and he will do anything for money. Bellasar also discards women who pass the age of thirty, because their beauty starts to fade. When I say "discards," I mean it literally--he has them killed. Our hero, Chase, is sent by the CIA to save Sienna and to stop Derek from his nefarious activities. None of these characters ever comes to life. The action sequences are not particularly exciting. The only part of the book that moved me was the last page, which was somewhat poignant. Overall, I had the feeling that Morrell wrote this book mechanically; "Burnt Sienna" is not his best work.
