Mark Gardner

A glimpse into the mind of a man who’s tired of the world dancing to someone else’s tune.

Reviewed in the United States on May 2, 2017

“In Brian Jackson’s eyes, he was being cheated out of a proper life.” I’ve been a fan of Greg Dragon for a while now. I’ve devoured all his science fiction offerings, and it was time to read his crime series. With the sequel, Gun Moll coming out soon, I wanted to have sufficient time to allow The Factory to process before reading the sequel. I knew I’d like The Factory, because I’ve yet to find anything by Greg Dragon that I haven’t liked.

The Factory is a gritty, no-holds-barred look into the life and times of Brian Jackson – a man who has seen the world pass him by. Like Walter White in Breaking Bad, Brian Jackson starts out with what I’ll call “good intentions.” But what starts as a small-time hustle ends up being something more as Brian Jackson walks the path of murder, infidelity, and organized crime. Like Walter White, you can’t help but root for Brian Jackson, even as his actions get darker and darker. By the end, you question why you even like the character, but know that you’ll follow him anywhere.

Greg Dragon writes characters that are raw, violent, and human. The hyper-masculine Brian Jackson is a wish fulfillment of many young men in today’s society of political correctness, even if they’re reticent to admit it. The Factory doesn’t shy away from the “real” world either, and liberally uses swearing, racial slurs, sex, and realistic depictions of crime, including murder.

Five out of five stars for a story that speaks to the id and the ego. It’s a brief glimpse into the mind and actions of mad man who’s tired of the world dancing to someone else’s tune, and decides to tickle the ivories with a score that only he can settle.

Great Read

Reviewed in the United States on September 8, 2015

I've never read anything like this before, but the way Greg Dragon writes is excellent and I couldn't turn myself away from the page.
A book that doesn't stop at just one partner.
Includes adult themes of sexual nature, swearing & violence.
A man's point of view with cool black man talk by the different characters.
Edited well too.
It feels like this isn't the end of the story. Still more to come. I hope so.

Three years? Will wait for part 2 first.

Reviewed in the United States on March 26, 2017

By reading the reviews I know my purchase will be worth it but, three years is an awful lot of time too wait for book 2. Based on reading a chapter of the book I would give it 4 stars.

I need more hustle

Reviewed in the United States on November 23, 2014

Before I say anything, let me make it clear that this is a book targeted at men. I'm not saying that this is a bad thing, but don't let the rose on the cover make you think otherwise.

I loved this book! Even though the main character devolves into a criminal over the course of the novel, you still identify with the guy. Brian is a real person with real motives. The dialog is great, I like it when authors can capture slang and vernacular accurately. It's also interesting how the main character can "flip the switch" and alter his language based on who he's talking to.

I think that the best part about this book is that it makes me want to hustle. Every guy who has seen The Godfather has fantasized about being a crime boss. Reading about how Brian makes it happen is his life makes me think the fantasy isn't all that far off. The 'do-ability' of everything was a real hook for me.

The last few pages hint that there might be more for Brian and his boys...I hope so!

does a brilliant job of creating characters that you really feel you ...

Reviewed in the United States on January 26, 2015

This book is gritty. Not for the faint of heart! Greg Dragon, as an author, does a brilliant job of creating characters that you really feel you know, or perhaps even have met in real life. I was upset about the ending, to be honest, only to find out that this is only book one of a series of the story of Brian and his decent into criminal life. Can't wait for the next one. I want to know why and where Jada disappeared so early on in the book.
