Tim reviewed The Whistler by John Grisham (Whistler -- bk. 1)
Review of 'The Whistler' on 'Goodreads'
4 stars
With the reading of The Whistler, I have discovered the value of a great author. Grisham is a great author. Why? Because the subject matter of The Whistler wasn't especially interesting to me but Grisham's skills and writing style made it a fun read. The last five books I have read were, in many parts, excruciatingly slow. I didn't encounter any of those parts in The Whistler.
Character development was excellent and he never really lingered on any one issue for too long. The only questionable part of the book was the ending. It seemed a little rushed. It was kind of like the author got bored writing the book or he ran up against a deadline.
This is still a solid 4-star book.
