      Too much redundancy. The startup of the novel is slow and quite boring. The meet-cute with the female character is great, but the development of the relationship is shaky. She querulously asks him some hundred times to let her go, instead of assuming a personal approach to the kidnapping, say ironic, scared, whatever. Then she changes his judgment just because Bourne saves her from rape, and certain murder, after putting her in the position of been raped and murdered. Emotional arch is so precarious Ludlum has to help it by repiting 10 times why she is so eager to help him. From a spy story you expect stone-solid plot, so that you can enjoy diversions. Besides, Bourne is always a step beyond action and his relationship with the impact character is based on a very lazy and late coming bonding-event. Moreover, the identity-issue is pretty much boring since you never really fear Bourne is actually a bad guy and you don't care that much about his past. It's very surprising how novels intended for mass marked can be so lazy and badly assembled. It basically looks like an amateurial work in need of a good editor.
