Query: The Bourne bore.

As luck would have it, I had nothing good to read one night, so I picked this one up from the stacks in my garage. Robert Ludlum is a story teller, not a writer. I finished it out of pride, not desire. It has a nice plot, but the writing is poor, disjointed and a lot of the story is implausible. For instance, Jason Bourne travels all over Hong Kong and into Chi Com with a briefcase full of money and no one catches on? Wouldn't the briefcase be in the way when he was doing all that fighting and stuff? Marie's escape and flight was interesting, and the described chaos of Hong Kong is believable.Do I want to read any other Ludlum books? Not unless I don't have to pay for them and I have nothing else to read. Evidently this book was a best seller for weeks and weeks. Must be an East Coast thing. In the west we recognize tripe when we see it.
