I always leave 5 stars for an author as good as Grisham. The insight into the coal mining industry is outstanding. I just hope its not all true!!! I have seen how our legal system is so sick and this definitely helps to prove it. There are several loose ends in the book and I wish there were a sequel to help with some closure. I am happy that Samantha decided to help Mattie and her group with their cases. It mentioned there were about 15 lawyers in the town. What were they doing? Seems like they all needed to help with the black lung cases. Anyway, great book. Highly recommend it.

Not his best work. Alot of time spent on a character who is dead. I liked that he painted a realistic picture of the horrors of coal mining and what the coal companies do to the people of Appalachia. But the novel ends abruptly without closure on a number of topics and people he introduces. And you can see the ending coming from early in the book. I love Grisham and read all his books, and I'll continue to do so. But this one could have been alot better.

I have read every John Grisham book and love his characters. When I finished the book I wished this could have been the first of series of books with the same group of primary characters. The book involved the coal industry and I learned a lot of interesting facts along the way. One of the things I really like about Grisham's books and that he develops the characters so we feel like we almost know them personally. He makes us care about the characters, in addition to an interesting plot with some twists and turns along the way. I would highly recommend this book to anyone who likes legal thrillers with heavy character development!

Although I have not read Gray Mountain I like my chances considering the author. Grisham has an imagination that is spellbinding!
