Robert Ludlum's The Bourne Sanction

Eric Van Lustbader
Grand Central Publishing (2008)
ISBN 9780446539869
Reviewed by Gina Holland for RebeccasReads (1/09)

Remember “The Bourne Supremacy?” “The Bourne Legacy?” Or maybe you remember “The Bourne Betrayal?” Well I am here to tell you that “The Bourne Sanction” is by far the best novel of them all! The author, Eric Van Lustbader, brings back Jason Bourne of course, this time with many more thrills and adventures. Jason Bourne is trying to make a life of normalcy. He is leading a double life as a professor, a friend, and trying to escape the past. Jason’s mentor and friend, Professor Specter, is aware of his restlessness and his need for something other than the life he is leading. So he asks Jason’s help to investigate the murder of a former student. Professor Specter believes a Muslim Group killed the man.  Specter thinks that when the man died, he was carrying a secret about terrorist groups and maybe an attack on the United States.

This novel is action packed and is unbelievably interesting. It is a very large book, so be sure that you have plenty of time to read, because as soon as you do, you will not want to stop! As in the other Bourne novels, Jason Bourne is an intriguing, risk-taking, and intelligent character. He stops at nothing to get things done. He is always there to help other people and rid the world of nasty elements.

Eric Van Lustbader is a very informative author. His words were very clear and to the point, and his plot was planned out perfectly until the end of the story. The novel is very well detailed as well. His writing was superb and his brilliance was well noted. I am hoping that Mr. Lustbader will be continuing the legacy of Jason Bourne and write another novel to follow this one.
