1) Hardcover Book Robert Ludlum's (TM) The Bourne Sanction by Grand Central Publishing. I never thought I would love this book as much as I did. The first book written for the Jason Bourne character by Van Lustbader,was a snore feast and it wasn´t very believable. This one is a hugggghhhh step up, and being a big fan of Bourne I can´t wait for the next one.¤

2) Hardcover Book Robert Ludlum's (TM) The Bourne Sanction by Grand Central Publishing. I was a huge fan of the original Bourne. The character was special - you had the feeling of finely honed skills resulting from the ultimate training. An almost superhuman figure.

The main character of this book may have gone by that name but was a different character in my view. You did not get the feeling he was anything special and heaven knows how he prevailed in all his various battles. I got a similar feeling from the general manner in which the story was written - almost like the author was going through the motions. It was thin, implausible and naive.

I´m afraid this book just didn´t do it for me.¤

3) Hardcover Book Robert Ludlum's (TM) The Bourne Sanction by Grand Central Publishing. The latest Jason Bourne adventure finds him at loose ends as David Webb, linguistics professor at Georgetown University, missing the adrenaline surges of his past exploits. So he quits to embark on another episode, this time involving a Muslim conspiracy to attack a target in the United States.

Meanwhile, there are conspiracies in Washington involving the Defense Department aiming to take over the Counter Intelligence Agency. As each of the two plots progress with the customary twists and turns, Jason, of course, withstands more physical attacks than anyone else can stand. Not to mention dishing it out as well.

Written with the accustomed panache of the previous novels in the series, "Sanction" has its ups and downs. It also is fairly long and hardly a light read, but it is recommended.

4) Hardcover Book Robert Ludlum's (TM) The Bourne Sanction by Grand Central Publishing. Well written, however the fights, deaths etc. are more than violent. I would definitely not let even a teenager read this.
The Sanction will be great in a movie.

6) Hardcover Book Robert Ludlum's (TM) The Bourne Sanction by Grand Central Publishing. Jason Bourne returns to Georgetown University and the mild world of his alter ego, David Webb, hoping for normalcy. But after so many adrenaline-soaked years of risking his life, Bourne finds himself chafing under the quiet life of a linguistics professor.


Aware of his frustrations, his academic mentor, Professor Specter, asks for help investigating the murder of a former student by a previously unknown Muslim extremist sect. The young man died carrying information about the group´s terrorist activities, including an immediate plan to attack the United States.


The organization, the Black Legion, and its lethal plot have also popped up on the radar of Central Intelligence, where new director Veronica Hart is struggling to assert her authority. Sensing an opportunity to take control of CI by showing Hart´s incompetence, National Security Agency operatives plan to accomplish what CI never could-hunt down and kill Bourne.


In Europe, Bourne´s investigation into the Black Legion turns into one of the deadliest and most tangled operations of his double life-the pursuit of the leader of a murderous terrorist group with roots in the darkest days of World War II-all while an assassin as brilliant and damaged as himself is getting closer by the minute . . .¤
