I’m reading my first Lastbader Bourne – The Bourne Deception.
I think it’s appalling. Tabloid press level of writing. Boy’s Own level of plot.
It’s Lustbader who’s the deception.

… and by that I mean superb. Not suburb, where I live.

Re suggestion for great novel/novelist, if it you go outside the genre, Patrick O’Brien’s TWENTY Aubrey/Maturin novels are amazing. A viginti-ogy, and a suburb one.

Totally 100% true….Lustbader’s Bourne novels are EMPTY. Feels like one is reading some 5 year old kids fantasies. The character portrayal of bourne, his emotions, startegies, everything is missing. I can only say two words for what Lustbader has done…GROSS INJUSTICE. I have been searching many novels for the kind of style and depth in which Ludlum has portrayed Bourne. So far Ludlum is unmatched..Can anyone suggest me any novel by any author which even comes close to Ludlum’s Bourne trilogy?

Jason Bourne is not an assassin in Ludlum’s books, the US Government credited numerous deaths to Bourne, but that was just to build up the mystique. Other posters are correct, Marie was his reason for living, and she helped him put the Bourne persona behind him. An author that doesn’t understand that can’t really write a Jason Bourne novel.

I just started reading legacy and im disappointed. I hate what this writer is doing to Ludlum’s Bourne.

I totally agree with this. Ludlum built deep characters and the new books don’t BUILD on the old books like Ludlum used to build on his stories. I mean how can Khan appear and then DISAPPEAR??? I’m not reading more either.

How many times can Jason Bourne be stabed,chocked,and shot and still get the his opponent while he is said to be weak? And in the Sanction why are they landing in New York while the ship is in the Pacific Ocean? Did I miss something?

I personally like Lustbaders Bourne stories. I hated it when Lindros was killed but other then that they’re fine books. There is one thing that annoys me greatly. JASON BOURNE IS AN ASSASSIN!!! And i want to see him prepare for an assassination and then go through with it. I want the whole deal. Now even in the books and not just the movies Bourne became a professional fugitive. He kills along the way but what the hell this killings are not assassinations. He is the predator and he shouldn’t be the prey. Ok i get the whole the hunter became the hunted thing but come one. This is interesting once not all the time.
