Along Came A Spider Review


ALONG CAME A SPIDER

Written by: James Patterson



Alex Cross is one of the most dynamic protagonists of all time. I don’t know of too many main characters that can grip, pull your heart strings and make you laugh in the same sentence. I have read some of the rest of this series out of order, believe me, it holds up. I read what was available to me while seeking the earlier books, no regrets. It hasn’t made any difference to me thus far because each book holds up so well under its merit.


Hooray for Patterson. Gary Soneji is one twisted, badass, villain. He is one of the least likely guys to do such a thing, or so his family says. The way the characters bounce off each other is mesmerizing. I don’t want to spoil too much in case you decide to read this, but there is a lot more to it than just Soneji kidnapping a couple of high profile child celebrities. This story is complex, with a little office romance, media hatred and a lot of pivotal turns.


It’s a long read, but worth every page. If you are looking for an adventure, I say run to the library this instant. This review can wait. 9/10. It’s one of the best Patterson books I have read in a while, and I look forward to continuing down the series, hopefully in better order this time.
