I think the Windchime Legacy is by Mykel. A.W. I haven't read it - just searched on Google for it on your behalf.

@egoli, I have yet to read the prometheus deception. My favorite so far is the Holcroft Covenant.

There is definitely no basis for comparing both novelist. I don't think both authors can write outside their comfort zones.

When it comes to espionage thrillers, Frederick Forsyth is head and shoulders above R. Ludlum, J.Archer, Tom Clancy, Sidney Sheldon and any other person who has written in that genre.

When it comes to the law and courtroom thrillers, John Grisham is the best I've read.

So hard to choose.They're both very good in their respective fields. i enjoyed the matarese series better than any Grisham book (except for the client)
Re: Robert Ludlum Or John Grisham? by Akanniade(m): 2:29am On Jul 13, 2009
I have read almost all the Grisham but "A painted house" was simply not a good experiment out of his usual courtroom drama scenes. "Skipping Christmas" was hilarious though.
Ludlum, Am still on "Trevayne". I dont know I find myself struggling on it. maybe its just that one sha. His other books had better not be like Trevayne otherwise I would say Grisham is better.

Who posted this Asinine borderline criminal comparison? I won't even soil myself staying here too long. Jeez
Re: Robert Ludlum Or John Grisham? by cayesworld(m): 8:58pm On Apr 04, 2010
Ludlum is Good, Grisham is ok

Both shouldn't be compared though, 2 extremely different genres

For all you Grisham addicts, try reading anything by Brad Meltzer, I mean anything and you'll never read a Grisham again

Just my 2 cents
Re: Robert Ludlum Or John Grisham? by hoeyeadoe: 11:24am On Apr 05, 2010
It's got 2 be Griham , Rudlum frustrates me at times.
Re: Robert Ludlum Or John Grisham? by hoeyeadoe: 11:26am On Apr 05, 2010
Hey , has anyone read ' The Girl with the dragon tattoo' by Steigg Larsson- you've just got to love his inexperience. Fantastical!
Re: Robert Ludlum Or John Grisham? by goodstuff: 7:15pm On Apr 09, 2010
Both are masters!
Re: Robert Ludlum Or John Grisham? by ProAnti: 7:25pm On Apr 09, 2010
cant compare.
Different genres, different styles.
Re: Robert Ludlum Or John Grisham? by Parnassuss(m): 4:41pm On Apr 15, 2010
I love those two, but ithink you should compare Grisham with JamesPatterson and Ludlum with Fredrick Forsyth. But NONE can match Forsyth, for the Force is with him.
Re: Robert Ludlum Or John Grisham? by SamMilla1(m): 6:15pm On Apr 15, 2010
i like only three of fredricks books, ludlum has many block busters
