A compelling read, but a different story, with less of the high pitched action of the recent films. An older ‘Bourne Identity’, filmed with Richard Chamberlin and Jaclyn Smith, follows the book more closely. No reason that you can’t appreciate both; just don’t expect them to be the same.

How good are the Jason Bourne books?
The pacing of the novel was great. Not only is the action great, but the entire novel great. I’ve read novels where there was great action but the overall novel sucked, this book most definitely stands out as one of the best. So much better than ‘The Treadstone Resurrection’ which I thought killed the Bourne franchise.
