    A few days ago I picked up this book, foolishly thinking it was all three books in a series.
    Only when I read the back of the book did I discover that it's actually the 4th book.

    Has anyone read this or the other books in the series?

    Will I need to go back and get the others first or is it really worth it at all?!

    I got the Bourne trilogy just after christmas. Really didn't like the books that much at all. Its the first time I recall enjoying films more than the books that they were based on

    The one or two Ludlum books I read never did it for me either, i found them poorly written in comparison to some other espionage/thriller writers, lurching from action sequence to action sequence with very little in-between. That the Bourne books have crossed the page-screen divide so well owes as much, if not more, to the talents of those involved on the film side of that divide as it does to Ludlum's original books.

    Also, the films and the books have very little in common, especially the bourne supremacy.
