I was more than enthusiasm about it, but now I have to say the story is slowing down a little and I'm afraid the end might be disappointing...
Finally the ending was good and came up with a great way to attach the new series of old man Logan that start in 2016. I'm thrill to continue this adventure! See you!
Difficile de critiquer ce livre, livre qui consiste en fait à une phrase de 62 pages. On y traite d'injustice, de brutalité (extrême) policière et de d'échec humain. Le tout peut sembler intéressant, mais malheureusement, malgré le sujet brutal et touchant décrit, tout tombe un peu à plat, par un manque de contenu, un style qui nous accroche assez difficilement et un attachement au personnage réussit (considérant la longueur du texte) mais pas très solide. Je crois que l'idée était très bonne, mais que cela aurait été mieux rendu dans un livre un peu plus long, pour aller chercher plus de profondeur.
First of all, this book have to part. The novel and a short story, at the end, that use as a prelude to the novel.
The novel start slowly but keep us interested in the story, the characters have a bit of mystery that attach us and keep us going for knowing more, and when we finally understand it, it's brilliant and original. That is the only good part about it. Because the story is slow, the description of snow, snowing and driving in the snow are good and well done but repetitive and happen too often, back at the story, it's slow but the real problem is, we could have a good slow story and it would have been okay, but instead we find our self in a slow story that explode at the end (maybe the last 40 pages) into a big, big but really big apocalyptic plan that came out of nowhere and then end. The ending is okay but no more.
The short story is not well written, and probably is the idea that inspired the novel, but when you have read the novel there is not so much to learn from it, because the character tell a lot about what happen in it during the main story of the novel so...
Finally, I was once a good fan of Koontz, but the last two books I read from him are just big deception. I will probably give a another chance one day, but it will probably be his last. You can think of this book has much closer to 2.5 stars then the 3 I had to give it.

Interesting story and character. The illustrations are great! More psychological than action. Not great but still very good!
Livre très moyen. Le sujet semblait intéressant au départ, le droit de refuser ou non un traitement et le rôle du système de justice, des parents et de l'enfant concerné. Bon point de départ, mais qui dans les faits ne représente que 20/25% du livre. Le reste... les problèmes de couples de la juge, sa passion pour la musique, d'autres affaires juridique qu'on effleure juste assez pour n'y voir aucun intérêt. On se retrouve donc avec un manque d'intérêt pour l'ensemble de l'histoire y compris pour le personnage principale qui est aussi pâle et terne que l'on peut l'être. Le style d'écriture est banal, à 'exception de quelques phrases drôlement bien tournés, mais quelques phrases à peine pour tout un livre, c'est bien peu. Alors pourquoi un 3 étoiles, bien généreux je l'avoue, un 2,5 aurait sans doute mieux fait l'affaire, mais je ne me suis pas décidé à mettre seulement 2 pour deux raisons, les quelques phrases bien tournés qui nous font réfléchir et le sujet de base, qui bien que mal exploité, cela aurait pu tellement donné mieux, est tout de même très intéressant et un sujet qui mériterait plus d'attention. Malheureusement un livre qui ne rend pas justice à son idée originale et à son sujet principal!
Finally came to the end of it. I don't have enjoy it as much as the previous one. To much war stuff and not enough of the old vampire thing that I like in it. Hopefully the next volume will be better.
Un autre bon livre de Christian Bobin. Dans le même style, un mélange de philosophie et de religion qui apporte toujours une belle réflexion sur la vie. J'ai bien aimé!
Good fight with The Hulk but not long enough, I was expecting lot more. The story is also very slow for not saying it's doesn't evolve at all. The first half is just to put you in the story, like we don't read the #1 few weeks ago...
Déjà pas un grand fan de Walmart, je crois bien que ce livre m'en a dégoûté à jamais. Belle présentation d'un journaliste infiltré dans la compagnie et qui démontre à quel poitn cette compagnie abuse, méprise et fait son argent sur le dos d'une population pauvre et souvent peu éduquée (clients et employés) en utilisant des stratégies louches et douteuses qui poussent à consommer des objets de faibles qualités. Le capitalisme dans sa plus grande déchéance. Je vous encourage sincèrement à faire vos achats dans un autre magasin!!
