Publisher's summary

Two brothers. One, top FBI Agent Aloysius Pendergast. The other, Diogenes, a brilliant and twisted criminal. An undying hatred between them. Now, a perfect crime. And the ultimate challenge: Stop me if you can.

Preston & Child do it again

Would you listen to Dance of Death again? Why?

YES! Every book in this series just keeps getting better. The Pendergast character is so complex and ever changing. Look forward to the next weird situation he will get involved with next.

Who was your favorite character and why?

Pendergast is one of my all-time favorite characters. These books would make a fantastic movie along the lines of Robert Downey Jr's Sherlock Holmes movies. Pendergast and his tailored suits with all the tools and gadgets he pulls out of various pockets and hidden places. He is so strange and peculiar and yet very loyal and caring.

Which character – as performed by Scott Brick – was your favorite?

Brick does them all so well. I thought he would have a hard time separating Pendergast from his brother, Diogenes, in this book - but I thought he handled it well.

Wow!

This book, and the previous in the series, are compelling almost to the point of addiction. Well written, very detailed story lines and intriguing characters. I'm starting now on the next one.
