Ludlum Schmudlum

I really need to stop reading stuff by Ludlum. The first time I read any of his stuff was right after the first Bourne movie came out, when I read his three Bourne books (The Bourne Identity, The Bourne Supremacy and The Bourne Ultimatum). By the time I'd hit the third one, I'd realized that I really didn't care for the way he developed his characters, or the way his characters spoke. The story was interesting enough, he's certainly good with plot twists and pacing, but the characters just never seemed realistic.

But apparently I didn't learn my lesson. I still picked up The Aquitane Progression, which is totally forgetable. Definitely not recommended.
