The Bourne Sanction

Another fast, gripping novel by Robert Ludlum worth reading more than once. The action packed book has everything the doctor ordered..

The journey begins with Bourne working as an assistant to a professor in a university, he decides to live a normal life trying to shed the Bourne tag that had him running for his life from one country to another. However, ceratin circumstances prevail that entangles him in a web of conspiracy, deceit and lies. Bourne must dig deep and find out more about the people who put him in the web. He soon realises that he must follow a trail of murders to get to the root cause of them. With Bourne and his equivalent heading for a common goal, you just cannot stop reading until both converge..

Right from the skilful fight sequences to chases, the book catches Bourne at his very best. In fact, he has to be at his very best beacuse of some strong characters introduced in the book which are equivalent to him when it comes to brutal killing, fighting skills and serial killer instincts especially the viilain. The biggest and the most powerful character is undoubtedly the villain. To be very honest, the term villain does not appropriately describe the character mentioned above, but, if we have Bourne as the hero, all others have to be termed as villain.

One cannot wait for the movie to release. As if watching Bourne fight his way to know his real identity was exciting enough in the last 3 movies, having two of the same calibre would be a lot more than just icing on the cake. The villain might just overshadow Bourne in the movie quite analogous to what Joker did in the last Batman movie, The Dark Knight.

My verdict:- Highly Recommended.. It gets 4 on 5 tequilla shots..
