Book Review of Near Enemy: A Spademan Novel

Near Enemy: A Spademan Novel
reviewed on + 55 more book reviews


Sequel to "Spademan" and from the way it ends obviously second in a trilogy. I liked the first book better, the characters were fleshed out better. One thing that was OK in the first book but started to get on my nerves half-way through this one is the writing style: no quotation marks, and a lot of stream-of-consciousness half-sentences and phrases. If you can imagine a book that reads like a shopping list with lots of short bullet points -- this is it.

If you can get past all of that, still a good read and an interesting story.
