Discuss Containing Books The Outside Man

What drew me to this book was that it was set in Alabama where I live and that it was described as a courtroom drama. Courtroom drama was a total over statement. The characters never set foot in a courtroom and it was much more of a detective story than a legal thriller. Not that there is anything wrong with that. I also love detective stories. As to the Alabama setting, yes it was set in Birmingham, but there was very little Southern flavor. For one thing, if you have ever been in Alabama you

DisappointedI have been a Richard North Patterson fan and this book was okay but not as compelling as his other efforts. His other books have had good. Character development and I just needful d myself liking most of the characters in this effort.

This is the third of Richard North Patterson's books that I have read. I came to it from Protect and Defend, admirable in the tightness of its plot and its moral strength. I could hardly believe that The Outside Man was by the same author. Morally flabby, it presented me with not a single character for whom I could feel any respect. Perhaps it is a failure in me that I can feel little sympathy for the bankers, lawyers, mill owners and country club wives of a pour southern state. It would have

I really enjoyed this book! It was a bit of a slow start but kept me guessing up until the very end. Patterson managed to surprise me with the ending while leaving me wondering how I hadnt seen it coming. I eish there was a sequel however, I want to know what happened to Adam after tje end of this book.

Meh legal thriller. I thought it was contemporary, but it was published in 1981. I probably would have liked it more had I read it back then. Lots of twists and turns, but the characters were so not memorable that I kept forgetting who was whom.

Intriguing but surprisingly dated having been written in the 70s. I always enjoy RNP's books but this isn't my favorite

I have become a huge fan of Richard North Patterson over recent years, particularly his legal thrillers. The Outside Man certainly did not let me down. It is a wonderful read, not only being a great legal thriller but also a very good commentary of injustices carried out upon the negro population of the southern United States.
