Critics Review
-
“Violent and volatile and packed with sexuality…classic pulp fiction.”
USA Today
-
“As cool as an Eskimo Pie on a hot summer day and as sharp as a Ginsu knife.”
Milwaukee Journal Sentinel
-
“An amalgam of hard sex, harder violence, bodily functions, and belly laughs, this fun, fast read will leave readers craving the next installment. Recommended.”
Publishers Weekly
-
“Collins knows the terrain, mixing pulp-style action with just enough character building to keep us going. Great entertainment from a pro’s pro.”
