Advantages: Good Characters and a pretty decent plot Disadvantages: A little too much back information and at times the pace is a little slow
Having read the Bourne trilogy by Robert Ludlum, I chose to try something a little bit different from his other books. He is very much a writer of good Thrillers and the Bourne series were a good example of this.

play apart in Chopins dream world and become apart of his companies in his dreamworld.
