Rating: 3
Summary: Brain Candy at 35000 ft
Comment: Ken Follett came through for me again in this book. He is not Melville, not Chaucer, and not Steinbeck, but he does churn out good books that serve well to relieve the boredome of an in-flight movie or another bag of peanuts.

The one item that I didn't enjoy about this book from the perspective of plot was the fact that nothing works out for the protagonist and his cronies until the very end. Contrived as it may seem, you know when you pick up the book and read the jacket that he is going to make it and deliver the secrets just in the nick of time. The problem with this is that when you get a third of the way into it, and he seems about to deliver the secrets, you know that it won't work. The same thing happens at least 3 more times in this book, each time saw me checking how many pages I had left and then looking back at the title and realizing that unless he is getting into the Hornet...he isn't going to make it this time either.

Beyond that, if you are standing at the bookstore at LAX at 8:30 in the morning in the face of a 5 hour flight, you can't go wrong with Ken Follett.

Rating: 4
Summary: Failed research
Comment: One of Follett's research assistants must be suffering a premonition as he has a PV444 Volvo in the story (in 1941), a car that wasn't introduced until 1944.
