"I wasn't sure about this book when I started, but it was really good. It kept me interested, and made me think. The characters are well developed, and you care about them more and more as you go along."
The Name and the Shadow by Mark Jeffrey
"Pleasantly Surprised

When I first saw someone I follow in Crypto on Twitter (X, whatever) I didn’t have much hope for a fictional novel. However, the book is very well written, the characters well developed, and story line is paced to be engaging and" Read more of this review »

"Wordy, but worth it!

The story is well thought out and well written, but finds itself bogged down by the sheer amount of time it takes to explain the phycho/techno-babble behind the actual plot. While it's not my usual genre, I was still intrigued and" Read more of this review »

Patrick Doyle Hello Mark,

It's good to meet you. Thanks for finding me and adding me to your friends list. Your series sounds like one I can get into. I'll have to put them on my reding list. Check out my series at edgarfont.com. Two books are out, #3 comes out next summer and all-in-all there will be seven—all that and two other books in the works. Why do we do this to ourselves?

Hope to chat with you more later,
~patrick
