Review: Never Enough Pendergast
Rating: 4 out of 5
Date: 07 3, 2014
I have read all that Preston & Child have pumped out and thank them for the fun adventures. Their creation, Aloysius Pendergast, is one of my all-time favourite fictional characters. His back story comes out in intriguing dribs and drabs with each new story and that is the case with this short story Extraction. It is a tiny tale within a tale told by Pendergast to his ward Constance Green about a very real Tooth Fairy and his brother Diogenes. The story is tight and creepy but a bit too even to offer the thrills of the novel-length Pendergast outings. Still, new readers will be intrigued and no doubt want to learn more about the Pendergast universe and fans will find it fun bridge between novels.
