I thought the story was excellent. Well thought out and believable without the nonsensical super villain or situations where you wonder 'how did that get there'? It was interesting how the author incorporated a human weakness and turned it into a good solid story. I was also happy to see the characters doing and acting how they should. J.B. even was smoking his stogie, something he hasn't done since very early on in the series. Nor were there the 20 pay introspections that have plagued other books. What was there seemed to be just right. Now for the nitpick: Early on Kristy's revolver was described as a 9mm. This must've been a typo. Later, in the fight with the baddie that fell out of the tree, she finally got it down in 6 shots. I may be mistaken but her gun has been previously described as a 5 shot. Whoops.
Posted By Kerrick on 07 Aug 2010 08:38 PM My main gripes with it were: ...there were also a few British English artifacts that missed editing (a couple references to "the floor" instead of "the ground", and I think one to "windscreen" instead of "windshield").
Posted By )3az )3aziah on 08 Aug 2010 11:45 AM Artifacts? An artifact is an object produced or shaped by human hands of archaeological or historical interest. I think you should have used the word "words" here
I was actually quite happy to see some quite complex words thrown into the mix in this book for once.
My big gripe with most of the books is the constant mis-spelling of colour and axe
