The General's Daughter Audiobook

" I liked this, but did not love it. I loved the characters, but the relationship between between John and Cynthia was so under-developed as to seem unlikely. I also disliked the fact that the "solution" was still so gray, and had not really been corroborated by anyone. One of several things could have happened - I like my endings more black and white! "

" Not my favorite DeMille novel, but still much more enjoyable thatn the movie! "

" A wonderful thing about rental beach houses is that there is usually a bookshelf stuffed with what we would all call "a good summer read". Was able to finish this one but had to leave "The Scarecrow" by Michael Connolly behind. Well, a good summer read it was. "

" I could not put this book down till I found out "who-did-it!" "

" Brenner is a military investigator dispatched to an army base to investigate a murder. The victim is Ann Campbell an up-an-coming soldier and the daughter of a Fort Hadley's general. Brenner discovers she was a woman of loose morals and this may have led to her murder. Brenner is reunited with an old girlfriend, who is assigned to help with the investigation. Beneath the surface lurks scandals and secrets that can destory many. This is a captivating mystery. "

" The main character of this novel has just enough of a dichotomy to make him very interesting. "

" All in all, a really good mystery. My only problem with this book is that the character who ends up being best developed is dead the entire book. I ended up not really caring about the antagonists or their lives or their relationship. In fact, the story could have been told just as well without knowing anything about their romantic involvement at all. I'd read another of DeMille's mysteries, but not because of his detectives. "

" How did I not know this movie was a book? Saw it when it first was released, the book is better (as it usually is). "

" it was a good book. I like the author. Just didn't read it real fast. "

" Wow what a plot and great view into the life of army! Highly recommend this book. "

" Frightening read concerning women's fight to bread the ranks at West Point. Good book. "

" A great read. Lots of twists and turns. Loved it. "

" John Travolta was the main lead in the movie that was based on this book. I enjoyed the book especially having been to Vietnam and having some insight on the culture. "

" First DeMille book I read. It was a fantastic book and could picture Travolta as Paul while reading it. Love the movie years later! What a great sense of humor the author has. "

" It was a good read, but it was a little more disturbing than what I would like for a fun book to read. "

" Love this book. Read the whole book in one sitting. The movie sucks though. "

" Good way to kill a few hours. "

" Finished this in three days. DeMille is a master at suspense. Always a page turner. "

" First book by DeMille.....pretty sure I'm hooked on him now. "

" Really liked this, much better then the movie. "

" Excellent read, one of my favorite books "

" Much better than the movie. "

" a girl who dies from her fathers fault "

" This was one of DeMille's best. It kept up the suspense throughout, with enough character antagonism to keep the reader's interest in what might otherwise have been routine sequences's the author neede to add important detail. "

" I read this book in the summer of 1998 while I was working at the CIA. I got paid like 8$ an hour to sit in an empty office and wait for the phone to ring. It rang about twice a week. My "boss" felt sorry for me and gave me this book to read. It was better than waiting for the phone to ring. "

" Not in the class of "The Gold Coast" but still enjoyable with many twists & turns. Now for the sequel of 900 pages "

" Great book; now I need to re-watch the 'old' movie! "

" DeMille shines! Lots of research -- detailed descriptions. "

" A great crime novel. DeMille gets Army life down pat. "

" Much better than the movie! "

" Much better than the movie. I very much like the detective character, and it was not easy to figure out what happened ahead of time. "

" Plane reading. "

" Read this after my father made it through the book. Surprised that I enjoyed it as much as I did. Simple story but a great read. Not over done like many of these military investigation stories. Great way to start DeMille if your interested and looking for good place to start. "

" Recommended to me by my dear friend, Larry. Ended up reading all of DeMille's book & loving each one! "

" Action adventure and mystery. Great fun. "

" Somewhere percolating in this novel is the genesis of the soon to be introduced John Corey.Read the book before you see the miscast movie. "

" After seeing the movie first it's difficult to rate this book. It was an average read and an average movie. I guess it's just not my type of book/movie. "

" definitely better than the movie, I love DeMille "

" A great crime novel. DeMille gets Army life down pat. "

" DeMille, in my experience, can be relied on for absorbing thrillers with exciting plots, characters with depth, and plenty of surprises. Excellent! "

" Great book. I love his characters. "

" grubby but compelling story telling. it's an airport / beach novel nothing more "

" sleazy cheesy doorstop of a Dad book. the kinda thing i'd see me father reading or me grandfather. passes the time while travelling "

" the movie was such a disappointment "

" I haven't seen the film version of this but quite liked the book, although there were quite graphic descriptions. "

" Only gave it one star simply because of the content; very graphic and very violent. "
