Another great read

I really enjoyed this book in the series. In my opinion I feel as if Animal came into play to replace Jah. Animal is ruthless. I enjoy his character.

This Book Was Awseome

OMG I cannot wait to read the next book in this Series! K'wan's writing is absolutely wonderful and you paint a picture like no other. I really feel like I'm there watching everything as I read. Cary Hite, the narrator... AMAZING.... He engulfs every character and definitely gives them a personality all they're own. He brings them to life as he reads and I absolutely love that. Another Great Read or "Listen Shall I Say"!!!

The women

The narrative by Cary Hite brings a level of understanding to the female characters. Cary could express the emotions of the characters in such a way that you believe that you are watching what is going on in front of you.
