Review: How Does One Get Away with Putting Crichton and Brown in their Amazon Title?
Rating: 3 out of 5

There is a famous quote by Lloyd Bentsen to Dan Quayle during the 1988 vp debates: "Senator, you are no Jack Kennedy."Abbenhaus is no Crichton or Brown.  At least he hasn't proved it with this novel.I liked the story in many ways; however, the megalomaniacial super villian has been done, redone and all the T-shirts have been sold.  A more subtle antagonist, more nuanced, would have appealed to me as a mature reader.  If this book was meant for 15 year olds, you hit the mark.I normally finish a novel in 2 or 3 sittings.  This book took much longer as there was little to keep me glued to the plot.Please stop using the names of better authors to fluff your books.
