The Collectors is a way better sequel than the first book in this series: the Camel Club. Basically because of one major factor: The story is definitely more realistic. Baldacci asked too much of his readers in this first book by continuously implementing new figures in the political and intelligence business and ending up with an exaggerated doomsday scenario, that definitely made the story in the end too implausible and therefore uninteresting.
He definitely didn't make this mistake here. The storyline is very complexe and gives a lot of hints for any possible ending, but you never really catch the whole storyline till the very end. That very sophisticated idea has still a realistic approach, that the reader can follow by any time, and gives the book an incredible enjoyable character. And the open ending of the second storyline in this book, makes you become absolutely interested in the next sequel.
Hopefully, the U.S. authorities ready carefully his books, so they will ...

What an incredible book. Once you start reading it, you won't be able to set it down. I even got yelled at by my boss for reading the book on company time. I've read it 4 times and each time is like the first time. There is alot of information to process so get ready be blown away. It's awsome. Also, if you missed reading Tino Georgiou's masterpiece--The Fates, go and read it.

Am Anfang des Buches hat man den Eindruck, man hat zwei Bücher gekauft. Zwei Stories in einem Buch. Zum einen ein sehr informativer Einblick in die Welt der Trikser und Betrüger, zum anderen die zweite Geschichte mit dem "Camel Club", wobei insbesondere die zweite Geschichte als Fortsetzung sehr gelungen ist. Die Charaktere sind zwar sehr stereotypisch, jeder hat seine spezielle Aufgabe mit dem ultimativen Anführer Stone... Jedoch sind insbesondere Milton und Shaw mit ihren Macken sehr amüsant. Wie die erste Geschichte ausgeht in der Welt der Gauner wird man wohl erst in einem nächsten Buch lesen ...

If you liked David Baldacci's The Camel Club, don't miss The Collectors! The wackiest group of Minutemen in history is back with an unexpected ally, Annabelle Conroy, who brings her extraordinary skill in running million-dollar frauds to the Camel Club's traitor fighting. It's a brilliant development for a series concept that is already one of the most successful variations on the thriller genre in many years.
As before, the Republic is in danger by sinister people who are selling off secrets to the highest bidders to feather their own nests. The evidence of this danger is found in frequent deaths of spies and prominent people. In this case, a rogue assassin has gone into business for himself. In addition to earning a fortune, he is also thrilled to keep souvenirs of those he dispatches.
One of these deaths, that of Jonathan DeHaven, is a quite mysterious one at the Library of Congress that seems on the surface to be from natural causes. But the Camel Club wants ...
