Surprising

I have read all of Greg Iles books, and while this was definitely a decent book, it was not his best. However, it is worth the read. My biggest complaint was that it lacked the usual "page-turner" quality of Iles other books. Most of his books are hard to put down, but this one just kind of plodded along for me. A little disappointed, but still a fan.

Review of Audio Book

I'm almost finished with the audio version of Third Degree and I absolutley LOVE IT. I was really suprised to see so many negative and neutral reviews. I listen to audio books in the car on my looonnnnggg commute to work each day and this book makes me wish my commute were even longer.
I am completely riveted by the story that has developed. I love the characters and can't wait to find out how it all turns out!!!

The narrator does a great job. I sometimes have a problem with audio books when narrators try to do accents and voices and end up sounding corny. If I can't get past the narration, then I can't get immersed in the novel. This narrator (sorry, can't remember his name) does a fantastic job distingushing characters (including female characters) through voice inflections and some accenting. He even does the kids voices well. I consider it to be good narration if I can forget that I'm listening to someone reading and get just as involved as if I were reading myself. Kudos on a job well done here.

I did notice that most of the 1 star reviews said that this book pales in comparison to the authors other novels. If this is one of his poorer novels, I can't wait to get the others!

Fastest book I ever read

I read some of these reviews and was tempted to not get it, but the description of the book intrigued me. I read this book faster than any book I've ever read. I guess you can call that a page turner. I found it very entertaining

So, So Good

I've been surprised over the negative comments about THIRD DEGREE, mostly because I enjoyed it so much. As far as thrillers go, it's not amazingly original, but the writing is great and it moves along at a really good clip.

This isn't about crazy terrorists, gun-toting assassins, or super spies. It's simply about a marriage that has fallen apart, a husband who has literally gone over the deep end, and a wife trying her best to both apologize for her betrayal and keep safe everyone she loves the most.

I read THIRD DEGREE in a day, because I didn't want to put it down once I started. For me, a really enjoyable read!
