The BEST Alex Hawke novel, yet! Ted Bell's unmatched in his ability to narrate in the "voice" of each individual character throughout the many story lines, so that you, the reader, are actually "behind the eyes" and "in the mind" of each character, hearing them describe every detail in their voice, with their jargon, slang, vocabulary...you even start to "hear" their particular dialects and inflections. Thrilling experience! This writing style truly paints a clearer picture for the reader, adding an audible element to the created environment. No one, and I mean NO ONE, creates characters this "Round." Hurry up with the next one, Ted!!!
