THE GREATEST LIVING WRITER

theBIBLIOfile-------------------------------------------

He has sold 170 million books. He is the only author to have five hardback titles debut #1 on the New York Times list in a single year ... which he's accomplished four times. He has had nineteen consecutive # 1 bestsellers. He's had 46 New York Times hardback bestsellers.

James Patterson is the greatest living American writer. After all numbers don't lie. If that doesn't prove his statue, let's look at his brilliant, often transcendent writing ...

• I'M A GIRL OF EXTREMES. When I love something, I'm like a puppy dog (without all the licking). When I'm cranky, I'm a wasp (like, a whole hive of 'em). And when I'm angry, I'm a mother bear with a predator after her cubs: dangerous.(From Fang)

• And then, as though God Himself had finally heard her calling, a cell phone rang inside the trunk. (From Swimsuit)

• Getting stuck on a bus in New York City, even under normal circumstances, is a lesson in frustration. But when the bus belongs to the NYPD Tactical Assistance Response Unit, and it’s parked at a barricade that’s swarming with cops, and you’re there because you’re the only person in the world who might have a chance at keeping several hostages from being killed, you can cancel your dinner plans. (From Run For Your Life)

Who can argue with Patterson's brilliance? If Patterson does not win the Nobel Prize for Literature it will be incontrovertible evidence that the Nobel committee is nothing more than a group of political hacks.
