This writer is amazing and should be on The NY Times bestseller’s list. I have truly enjoyed book 3 and the rest. I don’t know what to say, but read all 3 books. The writing and the story speaks volumes. " |

The charcter development was excellent and a really good story. The title says it all. Killing Johnny Miracle. A love story of sorts " |

"This is really a 10 star book in my mind. Where do I start? Let's see, an old murder cover up, a new murder, future murders, and another parallel story with Ruby, drenched in murder. The twists and turns will keep your head spinning every which way u"

"Hay que leer la trilogía. Esta bien entretenida, que a veces, ha llegado a ponerme en tensión. Muchísimos personajes, pero no se pierde el hilo de los 3 libros, y no desconectas."

“Our world is not safe. It is a toxic swamp populated by predators and parasites. The odds are stacked against us from the moment of conception. We survive only because we fight the elements, hunger, disease, each other. And, although civilization promises us safe harbor, that promise is a fairy tale. Only the storm is real. It comes for each of us. And we cannot win. We can only choose how we will suffer our defeat.
We can meekly take our beatings, and die like lemmings, finding solace in the belief that we shall one day inherit the earth.
Or, we can plunge into the chaos with eyes wide open, taking comfort instead from the bruises, scars, and broken bones which prove that we fought to live and die as gods.”

“She looked to Roy as though she lived in Oz, in the land of color, like she carried it with her everywhere she went. When they began dating, he found that her energy was the perfect counterpoint to the world into which he sank at regular intervals, that black and white Kansas that he inhabited.”

“Outlier complacency' is a heuristic that allows a person to enjoy the thrill of danger associated with the possible negative outcome of an activity or event because they take comfort in the reality that the likelihood of an actual negative outcome is statistically low.”
