JAMES PATTERSON SELECTS SAM STEPHENS AS FAVOURITE:

James Patterson selected Chapter 17 of Airborne, written by Sam Stephens, as his favourite chapter from the Airborne project.

Airborne - Chain Thriller

JAMES PATTERSON'S REVIEW:

"Picking a winning chapter was tough as there is some very commendable writing in AirBorne. I chose Sam Stephens’ chapter 17 as my favorite for a couple of reasons.

AirBorne has many twists turns and a multitude of characters. It’s an action-packed ride and the writers had to juggle many storylines.

For chapter 17, Sam chose to focus on Detective Tribe and his interrogation of a key suspect and this focus gives the chapter a clear direction. It contains only one scene, one location and only two characters.

The dialogue is strong and it’s very visual. It brings out Detective Tribe’s tough, no-nonsense investigating approach and it provided some character development on one of the bikers. It’s also damned funny.

Chapter 17 is well-written, well-paced and succeeds in anchoring the story brilliantly."
