Isaiah Quintabe - IQ for short - has never been more successful or felt more alone. A series of high-profile wins in his hometown of East Long Beach have made him so notorious that he can hardly go to the corner store without being recognized. Dodson, once his sidekick, is now his full-fledged partner, hell-bent on giving IQ's PI business some real legitimacy: a Facebook page and IQ's promise to stop accepting Christmas sweaters and carpet cleanings in exchange for PI services.
So when a young painter approaches IQ for help tracking down her missing mother, it's not just the case Isaiah's looking for but the human connection. And when his new confidant turns out to be connected to a dangerous paramilitary operation, IQ falls victim to a threat even a genius can't see coming.
Waiting for Isaiah around every corner is Seb, the Oxford-educated African gangster who was responsible for the death of his brother, Marcus. Only this time, Isaiah's not alone. Joined by a new love interest and his familiar band of accomplices, IQ is back - and the adventures are better than ever.

Reseñas de la Crítica
"With writing so sharp you may cut your fingers on the pages, Joe Ide's latest IQ novel, Wrecked, is outrageous and laugh-out-loud funny, a page-turner with devastating observations about the dangers of state-sanctioned violence and its consequences. The characters are unforgettable, none more so than IQ himself. Like in the previous books, IQ's tender intelligence and his tight moral compass are what make this series so stirring...and touching." (Attica Locke, Edgar Award-winning author of Bluebird, Bluebird)
"The hip-hop generation's answer to Sherlock Holmes returns fast and furious in the third installment of Ide's celebrated series.... Ide's penchant for colorful characters, droll banter, and whackadoodle set pieces is aided by a growing command of narrative dynamics. And Isaiah Quintabe remains an engaging, fascinating protagonist.... There's a harder, darker edge to the violence that gives this ripsnorting follow-up a rueful yet resonant aftertaste, perhaps in anticipation of more unsettling jolts in the hero's future." (Kirkus)
"Once again, Ide brilliantly combines caper-style comedy with real-world violence and more than a dollop of complex human relationships, the kind that too often lead to mess and muddle rather than happily-ever-aftering. If you haven't discovered this series yet, remedial action is required immediately." (Booklist, starred review)

Amazing Series

No real spoilers here, but I will say this. In terms of story, each book has plenty to offer. And I dug through all three books on about 4 days. So the story & characters are all there. But the inconsitencies or plot holes that showed up somewhat in the second book were much more plentiful in Wrecked, almost to the point of giving up a couple of times.
Every good novel with action and detective work happening has a certain amount of required suspension of disbelief. In a fantasy series, you expect magic. In science fiction, it’s new technology or time travel. And in an IQ book, you expect Isaiah to pull ideas out ofnthin air to save the day. But when Isaiah does something incredibly stupid, like, say, leaving a murderous bad guy tied up with a chance of escape or rescue as the story is reaching its pinnacle, That bugs me. It always bothers me when solid characters do things so contrary to their nature juat to make a plot “work”. Dodson’s wife was very inconsiatent, too...though I actually liked Dodson a lot more in this book. He’s attained some
real personal growth.
Anyway- i enjoyed all three booka. Thia one juat had some noticeable ticks that bugged me. Cheers
