Blowfly Review.

Ah, Miss Cornwell, you never cease to amaze me. I've been Miss Cornwell's fan since the first time I read a Scarpetta book - if I remember it correctly, it was her Body of Evidence book. Anyways, Blowfly is one of her latest Scarpetta novels. If you have never read a Scarpetta novel and start with this one, then you'll not comprehend a thing. So, better start with her first books, like - Body of Evidence. That one will psyche you up, I guarantee it.

Ok, with the review. This book still has the Scarpetta charm - the disgusting and gross details of forensic science is still here. She still grabs dead bodies and slice up their organs. Haha... enough with the gory details. Well, blowfly's story continues the Scarpetta saga, returning characters more chilling than ever. Why the title, I still can't tell why, but the story is meaty and long. There are lots of page turners that will let you... well, turn the page. What's nice about Cornwell's writing style is she divides the story into small, 2 to 3 page chapters,making it easier to read. It also helps her to make the reader visualize the story in different standpoints, so the story will weave into one huge story, full of twists and turns than a roller coaster ride.

The epilogue will pump up the blood of the readers, but you will still think that the book is "fast-forwarded" near the end - typical Cornwell. Fast forward meaning, Corwell kills every villain (except one) in like, 4 chapters. Tinamad na siguro magsulat si Cornwell. Oops, spoilers. :)

Anyways, if you're up to detailed gore and pancreas cutting, Blowfly is for you. You can't go wrong with Cornwell.
