Comment On Based On Books The Chosen One (Maggie Costello #2)

I finished this book in a week. It was rather engaging and interesting. Mind you, not the best book I've ever read, but it was entertaining. The character had some development and it was fast-paced. I also liked the ending. So if you are looking for an interesting story and are not terribly squeamish, this is a good book. Even if it wasn't that special for me.

A 2010 political conspiracy thriller that has proven eerily prescient. Well-crafted and better written than Dan Browns preposterous bestsellers, this is an undemanding but entertaining poolside entertainment

I had no idea what kind of story this book was about when I started reading it. I knew I wanted to read this one because I did quite enjoy Bourne's previous books. It was nice to see Maggie Costello back, and the character of Stephen Baker was ... well, he was the all-american president-extraordinaire. You HAD to like him. Either way. It was a good read even if it appears that maybe, just maybe some of the potential in the story was not used. I dont know, this kind of conspiracy offers more...

America has hope in the form of a charismatic, new President, who appears to be the genuine article. No sooner has he begun his term in office than it begins to unravel. Where did President Stephen Baker actually come from and what does he really stand for? The odds are stacked against Maggie Costello finding out.

Never read a political drama. Loved it! It was awesome to read such a thriller and drama.

Another from the headlines Sam Bourne thriller, imagining a concerted effort to bring down a new, Obama-like President. It's never dull, frequently gripping, though the final reveals do seem to be heading towards tin-foil hat type conspiracy theories. That it never quite goes over that precipice is a testament to the author's adept plotting.
