Review: Eclipse
Eclipse by Richard North Patterson
My rating: 2 of 5 stars
I don't know how I ended up with this audiobook, some sort of mistake. I don't read popular fiction as a rule and this tragic legal thriller had the elements I seek to avoid: flat, dimensionless characters dissemble instead of presenting a complex mystery like real people. The story is ripped from the headlines with an olio of terrorism, petroleum, and a rogue state obviously modeled on Nigeria. The most interesting part was the afterword, an interview with the author.
