The Jester by James Patterson and Andrew Gross

This is an historical novel taking place during the crusades.  I think that it had good potential, but it fell a little flat.  It was very simply written and not really catching from a history standpoint.  I kept reading because I wanted to see how things would unfold.  When you have the underdogs trying to take over the rulers, you want to see how it ends.  It wasn't terrible, but it was not Ken Follett.
