review 1: I really enjoyed the story line and the characters of this book. Most of the time I wanted to keep reading more, I like the way the story moved around the different plots and characters, it kept just enough suspense to keep reading. My only criticism is the poker scenes were very long and repetitive. I understand the need to create the tension between Willie, Carl and Elizabeth but it could have been done successfully in half the time. I skipped a lot of that. I did understand the ending, seems that others did not although I will not go into it so as to not give it away in any detail as it was not quite what I expected,
review 2: It took me a looooong time to read this book, partially because it's a long book (799 pages), but mostly due to a shortage of ti... moreme to read lately. But no matter what, I kept going back to it. The character development was excellent and I kept wondering where it was all headed. The climax was unexpected and shocking, but the ending left MANY questions unanswered which seemed in direct contrast to such long and detailed stories leading up to it. Even though I wish the book hasn't ended the way it did, I really enjoyed it. less
