Bourne Frees a Memory But Freezes When Action Is Needed: A Step Down from The Bourne Legacy
Rezension aus Deutschland vom 9. Juli 2007
The Bourne Betrayal is a bloated book with one significant plot development surprise in it. Be careful you don't find a spoiler with that surprise described in it or you will find this book to be very boring from beginning to end as the results you expect occur.
Under Deputy Director Martin Lindros, Central Intelligence has been reforming itself to become more effective in combating terrorists. But not everyone is happy about that progress, including the terrorists. Based on a lead that suggests a risk of nuclear terror, Lindros returns to the field. Meanwhile everyone else wants to play politics to advance their own self interests. Jason Bourne is naturally concerned because Lindros is his only friendly ally.
Meanwhile, Bourne is struggling with recurring images of a young woman dying in his arms that he associates with the death of his wife. What's worse than amnesia?: being tortured by the thought that he may bear enormous guilt for the deaths of others. How can he clear his mind? The methods he tries have unexpected consequences.
Soon, Bourne is brought into the search for the terrorist threat . . . but he's curiously ineffective at what he does. He stumbles as he travels a road into lots of hostile territory to stop the threat. Naturally, each stop on the road is filled with violent confrontations that often wound Bourne.
If you are a Lustbader fan, you'll find this book hews closer to the Lustbader type of action thriller than to the Ludlum style. I suspect that after The Bourne Betrayal there will be so little of the Ludlum story line left that it will be like starting up a new thriller series.
The book's biggest weaknesses come in two areas: The technology employed is science fiction rather than being plausible and the characters are merely names that have an emotion or two attached to them.
The book's biggest strength comes in its realistic portrayal of how underground facilities might be stormed and subdued by small hostile forces. Whenever the book moves underground, the story brightens a bit.
For my taste the book could have been 200 pages shorter and it would have been more appealing. The extra length didn't do much to add either suspense or excitement to the story.
Unless you feel compelled to know everything possible about Jason Bourne, you could skip this book. Its impact on the character can be captured in a few short sentences in the next book in the series.
If you haven't read The Bourne Legacy, you'll probably like this book even less than I did.
If you decide to read this book, consider how appearances can be deceiving and how you can look past such false appearances to get at the inner truth.

Rezension aus Deutschland vom 30. Januar 2008
Vorab: Ich bin ein großer Fan von der original Bourne-Trilogie von Robert Ludlum und finde auch die Neuinterpretation von Jason Bourne in den Filmen mit Matt Damon ziemlich gelungen. Als ich dann vor ein paar Jahren gelesen habe, dass van Lustbader die Bourne-Reihe fortsetzt, war ich angenehm überrascht.
Während van Lustbaders erstes Bourne-Buch "The Bourne Legacy" noch einigermaßen Spannung aufbaut, indem es eine neue Story mit schon bekannten Elementen (eben Jason Bourne und seine Hintergrundgeschichte) erzählt, entfernt sich "The Bourne Betrayal" vollständig von der Originalgeschichte und möchte wohl auf der Erfolgswelle der Filme mitreiten und eine Art "Reboot" starten.
Besonders negativ ist mir aufgefallen: ein 60jähriger (Bourne war ein junger Mann während des Vietnam-Krieges) Actionstar, der a la James Bond ein Motorrad von einem Transporter knackt und dann das Mädchen rettet? Ein Mann der neben zahlreicher anderer Sprachen ausgerechnet einen äthiopischen Bergdialekt spricht? Ein Terrorist, der mit Hilfe von Schönheitschirurgie den Platz eines hochrangigen Agenten in einer Zentrale voller Agenten einnimmt? Klingt spannend? Vielleicht, aber es passt meiner Meinung nach nicht in das Bourne-Universum.
Ansonsten liest sich das Buch wie ein zweitklassiger, schlecht recherchierter Terroristen-gegen-USA-Roman, in dem (natürlich!) die Terroristen versuchen, eine Atombombe in die ungläubigen USA zu bringen. Massenware, die mit dem Namen Bourne Geld bringen soll. Bourne-Fans sollten Abstand von diesem Buch nehmen und lieber noch mal die Ludlum-Bücher zur Hand nehmen oder ins Kino gehen.

Tense thriller!
Rezension aus dem Vereinigten Königreich vom 4. Juni 2014Verifizierter Kauf
More twists and turns than a rollercoaster!! I was loathe to put it down at nightime, wanting to know what was going to happen next, to the point that I did sneak a peek at the last page midway through, because I got a bit worried my hero wasn't going to survive the many beatings/stabbings etc. he'd had from the outset! A good read, but I did not give it a five star rating because I was very disappointed that Bourne's son Khan, was not featured at all in this book considering his major role and reunion with his father in the previous book! This was a disappointing lack of plot consistency for me

A Book of Two Halves
Rezension aus dem Vereinigten Königreich vom 7. März 2013Verifizierter Kauf
The book starts with more twists and turns than a curlywurly. However after the story reaches half way it loses the intrigue and turns into a straight action story with all the story lines in the open. I was expecting one major twist to occur at the end but nothing happened. Some parts of the story lacked credibility which would not really come across very well in a film, even though this is clearly written for the big screen.
I enjoyed reading the book but thought it could have been better written. I thought about 4 stars, but settled on 3 because it didn't encourage me to read any more books in the saga.

Wow cracking pacey read
Rezension aus dem Vereinigten Königreich vom 3. April 2017Verifizierter Kauf
Superb read from start to finish, I am a massive Jason Bourne fan of the films so was a little bit uneasy about reading a Bourne book. I was desperately hoping the books were as good or better than the films and I was not disappointed. It was 755 pages of fantastic reading progressive and pacey I can't wait to get my next Bourne book in the series.

If you loved the Bourne Movies, you have got to read the books.
With Ludlum's untimely death, Eric Van Lustbader has taken on the mantle as 'the chronicler of Bourne'. He's no Robert Ludlum, but he the next best thing...... Lets hope these 'sequels' make it to the silver screen. Robert Ludlum: The Second Bourne Trilogy: The Bourne Legacy, The Bourne Betrayal, The Bourne Sanction: The Bourne Trilogy

Better than expected
Rezension aus dem Vereinigten Königreich vom 30. Juli 2012Verifizierter Kauf
I have now read the first five Bourne books. The first three were enjoyable the fourth i felt was dissapointing,so i expected this one to be similar to the fourth. However i really enjoyed it. It has new characters, some who unfortunately won't be in subsequent books because they died in this one. As i've read five now, i'll have to now read all of them regardless of how good or bad the others are.
