The Collectors

I had read "Wish you Well" and "The Xmas Train" by our noted author and before reading it was at the Special collection area in the LOC. I heard it in cd form and I was, yes I was there, I know that area, and Caleb will always be there. And every time there is a murder, it is there. I met him at at the LOC bookfair 2 years ago and hopefully plan to meet him again and get his autograph again...more

good to see the gang back from camel club. Really sets up the club characters...esp. Caleb. Adds new and just as good people! A good set-up for the next book, but by itself...not a satisfying ending!

Listened to it twice, mainly because the Rare Book Room of the Library of Congress plays a major role. It's fun, and a good story. But in comparing notes with other friends, it seems that those who read it could barely get through it, while those who listened to it enjoyed it.

This sequel of the "Camel Club" does not grab its readers like its predecessor. If you persevere and read it till the end, it does come together nicely but it's a far cry from the usual Baldacci style...It also seems as if the author is preparing yet another sequel to this one, as the story never really ends
