Two-Dollar Bill (Stone Barrington Novels) by Stuart Woods

Stuart, it's time to pack up your computer, September 24, 2005**


This is another Stone Barrington novel. If you like this series, then you'll probably like this novel. But you can do much better. The characters are wooden, the dialogue stilted and Stone's exploits are outlandish. Woods has adopted James Patterson's style of short chapters but unlike Patterson he doesn't pull it off. I just read Lifeguard by Patterson. While it is not great literature it delivers exactly what it promises and is a highly entertaining read. Sadly, the same cannot be said for this novel by Woods. Stuart, it's time to pack it up.
