As I have stated many time, I would read just about anything that Preston and Child write.  There is nothing wrong with the writing in Extraction.  I am a bit weary of the retelling of the Pendergast family story but my real problem is this recent rush by popular authors to write these short novelettes.  You all (and this is for Berry, Rollins, etc.) have fans who live for your next book.  Why do you waste time with these?  If you want to be short story writers then by all means do so - get together and write them and combine into a book.  Otherwise, could you please devote your talents to feeding our insatiable appetite for full novels?  As a final thought, it is insulting to those of us who pay for your traditional books to find that these are given away free at the end of e-books.  Give some consideration to the fans who made you popular by buying the traditional printed books.
