BookLender review by Laurie on 2009-11-15 19:47:36

My first encounter with Shane Scully and SJC. Absolutely riveting story. I like Shane's humanness, his loyalty to his friends, even in the face of great disillusionment. I like that he listens to his head and his heart, and that sometimes he questions his own goodness. I even found myself wondering if there might be some road-to-damascus moment for Jody. All that makes for a great thriller and a satisfying tale of redemption. Unfortunately the backstory, which the author notes is based on pretty well-do***ented fact, makes me wonder if the human race -- at least the corporate one -- is actually worth saving. Excellent narration by Dick Hill, who recorded Jack Reacher in Gone Tomorrow, and it's a great voice for Shane. The way Hill enuciates The Day-glo Da-go paints its own image. Dick Hill makes every character memorable.
