Terminal (Burke Series #17)

Not a Favorite!

I bought two Andrew Vachss' books at a library book sale. This is the first time I have read this author and I am disappointed. This story was hard to follow, the dialog between characters was hard to tell who was saying what, and there were too many uncompleted thoughts/sentences. The characters weren't developed (or maybe I should have read previous Burke novels). It will be awhile, if ever, before I read the second book (Another Life). Good thing I only paid 33 cents a book. --K--

Love this Character

I have read many of the Burke series and find he gets better with every book. If you like a twist, Burke is a hit man that goes after bad guys, then you will fall in love with this character.

A Tedious Read

I found this novel a burdensome read. The story was difficult to follow due to confusing and puzzling dialog liberally sprinkled throughout the work. Ultimately, I was disappointed by this latest installment of the Burke series.

A reviewer

Very wordy and full of long winded thoughts, the plot is muddled and the goings on particularly unclear. Very little character interplay and I for one had trouble following much of the stilted, fill in the blanks dialogue. I was very disappointed.

Is there an actual story here?

I am a big fan of Vachss. I have every one of his books. The past few - and especially this one - are forums for the author's political views and pet peeves. The once vivid characters are flat. The story is lost in Vachss' ranting. I don't know - maybe that bullet rattled Burke's brain.......

Terminal by gifted writer Andrew Vachss is an outstanding murder-mystery that I absolutely loved to the max! The characters are believeable and exciting and the plot is is real page-turner! Get your copy of this book today!
