I was a bit worried about this book from the copy on the back. It tries to sell the Krakatoa explosion as a primary cause behind the current global phenomenon of violent, radical, Islam. Turns out the book is much less concerned with politics with history, science, and the places the two meet. The book is really amazing in the breadth of coverage it offers, from the history of the colonization of the East Indies, to the history of the theory of plate tectonics (shades of The Discoverers) to an explanation of said theory and the mechanics of how the continents shift beneath us, and volcanoes jut out of flat ground. Oh, and he says some stuff about the Krakatoa explosion. The whole book is fascinating. The only time I thought it got a bit long was during the description of the actual explosion, where he seems to record every immediate result, every island flooded, every family killed, etc. Winchester writes with an infectious enthusiasm and includes footnotes throughout of great tangential pieces of trivia. While he discusses the Muslim uprisings that occurred in Indonesia soon after the eruption, he never really gets into current politics, thank goodness.

A very good Novel like most of Paulo’s books. Every couple, friends, partners and any mates shall conceive and learn early enough - and before too late - the concept of two different worlds of any two partners. Understanding the distance between two persons and keeping it carefully in good maintenance should keep the relationship safe and warm. Having posses on others like owning them is the common mistake of people. Especially when it comes to love, set free your partner and give him the choice before someone else do that and have this great benefit. Every one in a different world, try to revoke it you will be thrown out of it, ans maybe forever.

I chose to review the audio book and in my opinion, if you're going to read this book in any form, the audio book is the way to go. Narrated by Adam Grupper, a voice is given to Mickey Haller that is a perfect fit. Mr. Grupper transitions between characters in an eloquent and believable manner. His enunciation and the fluidity with which he speaks is simply mesmerizing. I could listen to that voice all day long. Michael Connelly has taken The Lincoln Lawyer above and beyond most thrillers out there and leaves the reader begging for more of his work. With such strong willed and well developed characters as Mickey Haller, Connelly gives the main character depth and emotions you don't see in very many lawyers. The reader can relate to the way that Haller manipulates his way through his clients, the legal system and at times, his friends. This was a cleverly written book that will make you think and in my opinion, Mickey Haller could do no wrong. The climax of this book was a combination of twists and turns between lies and deceit. The Lincoln Lawyer was a bite your nails while sitting on the edge of your seat read. Outstanding! If I could pick the best audiobook that I have ever listened to, The Lincoln Lawyer would be it. Spectacular, intense, action packed and filled with manipulation, The Lincoln Lawyer is everything that I could have ever wanted in a book and then some. I have to say that this book opened my eyes as to just what can happen in the legal system. The Lincoln Lawyer is a fresh, mind tingling read that you simply cannot miss.

One of the most interesting subjects to me.

Wow, Vince Flynn really mailed this one in! He didn't even bother with the ending. He simply set up the sequel. I'm so glad that I didn't spend money directly on this one and borrowed it from my local library.
