An excellent read. Reads as a detective-type of story, with a father investigating his son's death. I found the characters to be interesting, with much depth and emotion. A great afternoon read with many interesting twists and turns. Definitely recommended.

I found this to be a quick, easy read. The scenery of the book is interesting, but the characters fell short and seemed flat. I'm not sure I would recommend it.

All in all it's not a BAD read, but not one of my favorites. It starts off slow - doesn't honestly keep your attention until 30 pages in. The characters are flat at times, the story line seemed a bit too jumpy.

After leading other standard "healthy" lifestyles like low fat/high carb vegetarian, vegan, and standard low fat diets, I'd hit a plateau, had some health issues, and was experiencing odd symptoms - arthritis in my hands (and I'm only 25!) and severe digestion problems. I started to realize the high carb lifestyle was a big contributor to my problems.

I started following the advice of the doctors Eades along with other advocates of the Low Carb (and Paleo) lifestyle - Gary Taubes of "Good Calories, Bad Calories", Mark Sisson of "The Primal Blueprint" and Loren Cordain of the Paleo diet.

I'm losing weight, I feel much better, and I've become a serious skeptic about the standard advice of today's dietitians and physicians regarding nutrition. I can't recommend the Protein Power series enough!
