Publisher's summary

For years Lou-Loc, an efficient assassin and OG of the Crip organization, did dirt. After dancing on the razor's edge, he has become weary of the street life that has consumed him during his service to his set and begins to wonder if there's a better way to make a living.

Lou-Loc and his sociopath counterpart, Gutter, leave Los Angeles for the colorful streets of New York, where Lou-Loc has dreams of becoming a writer, Gutter a kingpin.

Conflicting, intriguing, and suspenseful, this novel will keep you on the edge of your seat - once you start it, you won't stop.

Story flowed nicely

Where does Gangsta rank among all the audiobooks you’ve listened to so far?

It would rank somewhere in the middle.

What was the most interesting aspect of this story? The least interesting?

I always love when a book has rounded, well developed, relatable characters. This book had likeable characters that you don't always agree with. Also, the ending was a bit unpredictable.

Which character – as performed by Cary Hite – was your favorite?

Gutta...hands down!

Was there a moment in the book that particularly moved you?

The ending

Any additional comments?

There were some supernatural elements that were not explained. I wish they would have gone into detail and explained what was going on. I am looking forward to the next book.

Pronunciation

I loved the story but they way that Lou Loc’s name kept being miss-pronounced killed it for me.

Great book!

This book was more than I expected. I was hooked from the beginning and I normally only listen to NY Times best sellers. Im ready for PART 2!
