Book Review:And Then There Were None - Christie_ Agatha


Set on an isolated island without contact of the outside civilization, Agatha Christie's novel And Then There Were None is the story of ten strangers invited to an island by a mysterious host.

The book starts out with an introduction to the Ten characters. Although this is effective in telling the characters, it is also boring and does not catch your attention right away. But as soon as the guests arrive on Indian Island, this boredom disperses and an exciting thriller breaks through. What is also exciting about this novel is you have no idea who is committing these strange murders.

The first night these people are at the house they are greeted with an eerie voice that accuses them of murders that were committed but were never convicted of in the past. When the guests arrive there is no trace of U.N. Owen, but as the guests start to die this mysterious figure reveals his ugly face.

This book shows fear in peoples consciences, the guilt that lies within, and the hate among strangers. Anyone who wants to read a suspenseful murder mystery, and wants to stay on the end of their seats, should read this wicked novel of horror and fear...
