I just re-read "Legacies" last week, and I wanted to compare it to the most recent RJ novels. I then re-read the last three RJ novels. I have to say that there is an obvious difference in the writing. Almost like Ms. Rowling when she was doing the last two Harry Potter novels, you could see that she was tired of writing for this guy. She even admitted that she was tired, and she turned around and killed off most of the main people in the last novel! I really LOVED Legacies, and everything about Jack. I loved the way that he handled two different situations. I LOVED the novel where Jack dumped the oil and used tires on the druglord that killed the junkman's nephew. This was GREAT stuff. I hate to say it, but in comparison to those, these last three RJ novels are PALE compared to the first few. I realize how this can happen, and you can get stuck in a rut. But, for the last two, or three novels, can't we get Jack to go out with a BANG? If you LOVE Jack the way the rest of the world does, PLEASE, Dr. Wilson, PLEASE, look over what you had done back then, and see if you can get that "Groove" back. You are truly a gifted writer, and I just HATE to see Jack end, but hopefully we can have him end on a high note, not just some JK Rowling inspired ending.
