I found this book rather tedious. The art references were interesting at first but got to be a bit much as the story progressed. It might be interesting for a younger reader but definitely not for adult tastes.

I agree with aggiecat's assessment of the final season. It was a disappointment after many excellent programs.

I would give this book a mixed review - definitely not one of Grisham's best. The story line premise was very interesting and I wanted to find out the "why". However, it was too long winded and slow moving for my taste. The "why" became predictable as the story progressed but, yes, there was a bit of a twist at the end. I found it a sad and disturbing tale on so many levels, revenge, greed, war, cruelty, mistakes, tragedy.I would give this book a mixed review - definitely not one of Grisham's best.

Never mind the story or acting, I really didn't like the technical setup of the DVD to access the various episodes. I suppose it was intended to be clever but I found it a pain.

I watched seasons five and six within a week. Not quite binge watching but close - and definitely the way to go in order to get the most from this series. The stories are intense, complex and dark, some segments hard to watch. They relate to a lot going on in the world at this time, particularly the craziness of the US. Rupert Friend as Quinn is outstanding. Apparently there is a seventh season ready to go and an eighth will be the last. I can see how seven will pick up where six left off. Acting and production very well done.I watched seasons five and six within a week. Not quite binge watching but close - and definitely the way to go in order to get the most from this series.

Absolutely fabulous. Definitely one of Peter Robinson's best - a great mix of plot, character development and revelation, historical background, atmosphere. I give it five stars!

This is a very enjoyable read. Lots of plot with twists and turns until the end - also good character development. I will definitely read more by this author.

I really enjoyed this book. It had me guessing right up to the end. This author focuses on plot - which is very thick - and not full of fill about the locale etc etc I also really enjoy the books with the dog.

I just finished season nine and thought this was one of the best. They took some risks with the plots and characters - more serious and complex. I understand that there are two more seasons but not sure if ORL has them.

I would have to give this book a mixed review. Yes, it is very long and somewhat repetitive and drawn out. I understand that there will be two more in a trilogy - maybe that is why I found the ending not particularly satisfying - paving the way for future books to resolve the loose ends. Some of the events from the early days are very unsettling but people need to be aware and this certainly does create an awareness of those times. The book is very well written and readers are drawn in almost from page one. I will read the next two.I would have to give this book a mixed review.

Absolutely fabulous book. Highly recommend. Interesting that the writer is a male. The female perspective was very well done.

This book has a very slow moving plot and honestly, I found it tedious. The premise is good but I didn't think it delivered.
