Hello, everyone.
I've always thought that the best movies and books were those that had the most memorable villains. Remember Nurse Ratched from One Flew Over the Cuckoos Nest, Hannibal Lechtor (who needs no introduction).
Who are your favorite villains in a novel and why.
Mine are: Jim...
Extreme Measures, by Vince Flynn. He was great in the beginning. But two books prior to EM his quality began to decline and his characters in EM were very cardboard and clichéd. I didn't even get to halfway through the book before I threw it aside and took it back to the library
I read the book a few years ago. Thought that it was so-so. Saw the movie last summer and thought that it was mainly a lot of hype. There wasn't anything really memorable and the climatic scene in both the book and the movie were both very unbelievable.
I like Barry Eisler and James Patterson
Eisler writes in the same genre that I write and always has memorable characters.
James Patterson has the most interesting villains and he's good at keeping you turn the pages.
Vince Flynn is good however his earlier books were better than his last three where the quality has diminished. I recommend Barry Eisler for his John Rain series. The writing is better and the villains are more challenging to the protagonist.
Oh yeah, sweet. I hope to chat with several people in this site. A friend of mine suggested that I peruse these fiction forums to contact interesting people
