Summary
Known by his alias, "Oliver Stone," John Carr is the most wanted man in America. With two pulls of the trigger, the men who hid the truth of Stone's past and kept him in the shadows were finally silenced. But Stone's freedom has come at a steep price; the assassinations he carried out have prompted the highest levels of the United States Government to unleash a massive manhunt. Joe Knox is leading the charge, but his superiors aren't telling him everything there is to know about his quarry-and their hidden agendas are just as dangerous as the killer he's trying to catch. Meanwhile, with their friend and unofficial leader in hiding, the members of the Camel Club must fend for themselves, even as they try to protect him. As Knox closes in, Stone's flight from the demons of his past will take him far from Washington, D.C., to the coal-mining town of Devine, Virginia-and headlong into a confrontation every bit as lethal as the one he is trying to escape.
You might need to let go of reality a bit, but man, this book is amazing. The storytelling is top-notch, the plot keeps you hooked, and the characters are fantastic, as expected. Baldacci really knocked it out of the park with this series, and we can only cross our fingers for more. I can't recommend it enough.
I've already read the first two books of the Camel Club series, so I was already acquainted with the story. I found it quite intriguing that this book had a different setting. Nevertheless, I have to admit that the absence of the "group action" that was present in the first two books took away some of their charm, although it did pick up towards the end of this novel. Despite that, I would definitely suggest this book to anyone who is a fan of Baldacci's writing.
This book, 'Divine Justice', feels like a product of collaboration rather than a singular vision. It gives off the impression of being written by a collective of high school students, which unfortunately makes it a disappointing read. The story lacks depth, with a predictable and contrived plot that fails to leave a lasting impact. The characters are poorly developed and lack authenticity, making it difficult to connect with them. Finishing the book was a challenge, as it didn't offer much enjoyment or fulfillment. The main character, Annabelle, feels more like Clarabelle with her lackluster portrayal. In general, the characters feel flat and detached from reality. To summarize, it's best to avoid this book if you value your time.
I absolutely love the Camel Club, they're my favorite crew of characters that Baldacci has ever come up with. Usually, his books can be a bit sluggish at first, but then they pick up momentum as the story progresses. However, this time around, 'Divine Justice' jumps right into the action from the get-go and maintains that level of intensity throughout. In my opinion, this is the best book in the series so far. Baldacci's talent for crafting a compelling narrative and creating diverse and fascinating characters shines through once again. That's why I'm giving it a solid 5-star rating. I highly suggest grabbing a copy or downloading the audiobook for an immersive experience!
Wow, this book is absolutely incredible! It's hands down the top-notch installment in the Camel Club series. It's an action-packed rollercoaster ride that never lets up. I couldn't help but sense that this might be the final book in the series, and if that's the case, what an epic conclusion to an amazing saga. The characters in this book were absolutely fantastic.
I've bought and listened to all of Baldacci's Oliver Stone series, and let me tell you, this one takes the cake. If you're into mysteries and spy thrillers, I cannot recommend it enough.
David Balducci definitely knows how to spin a tale. Divine Justice is undeniably a worthwhile read, although it does have its fair share of shortcomings. The dialogue often comes across as stiff and clichéd, which is becoming a recurring issue in Balducci's recent works. While his stories remain engaging, the overall impact of the book suffers due to the lackluster dialogue. It feels as though Balducci is rushing to churn out another bestseller, neglecting the meticulous writing that made the early Camel Club books stand out.
The narration in Divine Justice, if anything, is even worse than the dialogue. The narrator fails to truly capture the essence of the main characters, and his attempts at an Appalachian dialect are cringe-worthy. The two main villains are portrayed as despicable to the point where the reader becomes exhausted with their detestability.
On a more positive note, the Camel Club characters, particularly a revitalized Oliver Stone, shine through and salvage the book from being a complete catastrophe.
