Query: Deviates from the storylines in the first book.

This book was okay, but definitely not better than the first. This book deviates from the storyline(s) created in the first book. If you want to read the books out of order then you can definitely read #2 before reading #1 in the series. Though, you do have to read the first book to understand what's happening in the third. I hated seeing Bourne get older and slower and less capable of taking out enemies like he used to.
