Had to skim most of it.

*SPOILERS!

A.L. Jackson is an incredible writer, but this story was so boring! I even skimmed the sex scenes because they dragged on too long and didn't really add more to the book except showing how much Christian and Elizabeth loved each other. In fact, most of the past leading up to their tragedy was showing that and I was like, "I GET IT! THEY LOVE EACH OTHER! MOVE ON!" What I don't like is that once their tragedy happened and Elizabeth spiraled into depression, Christian left after their first blow out. Really? You don't abandon somebody who obviously needs your help, love and support. You get over yourself and take care of them the best you can until they are able to care for themselves again. What I really did not care for was how easily everything was wrapped up after 90% of the book was depression and anguish. A kiss from another man followed by a round of angry sex with Christian makes Elizabeth all better and then they get a happily ever after? Where's the rebuilding? Where's the counseling? They get tattoos, married and have a son so yay, daisies and rainbows! Nope, depression doesn't work that way.

It was an okay story. Too much detail in so,e places that I found myself skimming a lot through this book. Some places were funny tho.

This had the potential to be a much better book than it was. All of the ingredients are here, it was extremely well researched, it was just too long and overly detailed. The read grows tiresome, and at some point you stop really caring. The author seems to love his own written word a bit too much. I didn't need the entire life history of everyone involved. Half again too long. Give it a read, but learn to skim through after a while.

interesting, somewhat easy to follow not good for skimming you really have to read to understand.

Weak, too much filler, ended up skim reading last half of the book.

While describing a situation is important the depth was overkill to the point where you just started skimming through it to get to the meat of the story.

There is a lot of fluff and un-necessary information here just for the sake of filling pages. If you manage to go through all the fluff there are some good info as well.

Got to the bottom of things with some of the finest asses around.

It felt way to rushed and the author did a whole lot of telling and not much showing. It was an interesting idea, but needed to be fleshed out a lot. Worth a buck though.

Couldn't get away from the filling, that Grisham, needed to fill up a 400 page book, but couldn't, so he kept adding
all kind of side stories. I was able to skip many pages, without it , interfere with the flow of the story.
I gave it 3 Stars only because I was able to get up to the last page.

I was determined to finish this book, so I kept reading.  I think the book should have been edited more.  Was it interesting?  In parts yes, but it drug on in many aspects.  It rambled on too long to get to the heart of the matter.

The Kindle single format has been intriguing, but I have found that there are some topics which seem to utilize this new format at the expense of prior editing. This particular single could have been told in far fewer pages, and could have saved me the tedium of forcing myself to finish it. It is an interesting topic to be sure, but the author let the reporting ramble for far too long.

Lot of extra material. Some paragraphs are written using flowery writing and big words, making it harder to just read and absorb the information.

This Saga was hard work to say the least. So many characters and storylines to keep track of and the story jumps all over the place, making it hard to keep track of what is going on. There were some good moments, but it really seriously needed to be edited down to half the size. I enjoyed following Ozzie and Toochee down the Silfen paths, and MorningLightMountain was interesting. I'm about 3/4 of the way through, and after reading other reviews I' going to skim the rest as it sounds like alot of the plots don't go anywhere.

Some of the fluff seems to accumulate and it was a bit small, but overall nice. It only goes through several wears though, then I started feeling self-conscious that it had a lot of the accumulated fluffy stuff.

Great summary of the Vatican Bank history, but I found parts overbearing while I was trying to keep track of all the bankers and financial deals described.

To much of the book was taken up talking about what the make up of certain minerals were. Only about half of the book was a story you could make sense of
