Blood Oath : Vol. 1

Summary: Morrell Is great
Review: This was the 1st of many Morrell books that I have read. This book made me want to read his other works such as Desperate Measures and I am currently reading First Blood. In this book you don't want to miss a thing and you are alwasys thinking. Morrell is great at making the hunter become the hunted. You can feel for Houston. He was told his whole life by his mother about his great war hero father and when he goes to pay his respects to his father people are trying to kill him and succeed in killing his wife. This is a book I would recomend to anyone.

Summary: First Morrell book I read-and why I still read only his!
Review: This was the first book I have read from David Morrell and this book is a prime example of why I continue to read his novels. Very original and easy to read-but hard to put down and dissapointing when you do! I loved the charecters, but most of all I loved the ending! It leaves you dazzled and left thinking! David you have done great again! Buy this book!

Summary: Not one of Morrell's best. Please read his others.
Review: While David Morrell is one of my favorite authors, I can not in good conscience recommend this particular submission. Blood Oath lacks several things, not the least of which is substance. You can not develop a liking to the whiny, pitiful, under-developed protagonist; Peter Houston. If this is your first read by Morrell, please don't judge him on this work. Try "The Brotherhood of the Rose", or " The Fraternity of the Stone", or "The Fifth Profession" to get a glimpse of what this wonderful author is truly capable of.
