Murder Vengeance Power by Jihad is a great realistic fiction novel about two friends who stuck up with each other through all the hard times. One character named Coltrane Jones started selling drugs at the age of 15 and made a living out of it. While his best friend Jonathon Parker became a lawyer. As their friendship goes by, they go on their different ways as they get older and a bit matured. Jonathon wants the governors job, but he has to take the dope dealer Coltrane down.
One of the reasons why I liked this novel is because its realistic fiction. It can really happen so as a reader you can think of this really being true. If you grow up around that type of area, you will understand everything that's going on in that book. Something that I didn't like in the book, was the understanding of everything. I had to read some of it again and again to actually understand what happened. For an example, when they first started talking about the girl Karen, I thought that was Jonathon girlfriend until I realized that was his younger sister.
However, even if you can't understand the novel, looking back at it wouldn't hurt because you could pick up on a lot of things in the book. I would highly recommend this book to people my age and over because this book has a lot of violence and cursing. This novel is a great thing to read overall

A real page turner. Help a man go legit then bury him... only a monster would do that. Gotta be careful who you call friend. Trane understands why his dad dropped the gem " Boy, trust no lawyer, especially no white lawyer. They the same folks that try to get rapists and child molesters off. What kind of person would help the devil?" Johnathon is as ruthless and cold-hearted as his father. His behavior is a prime example of the phrase "hurt people hurt people." This story is really good filled with many lessons on life.

MVP kept me supenseful till the end. I was impressed with the way Jihad captured the audience while keeping me guessing to how thing will enventually unravel. Even after the end of the novel my mouth was left agape not being able to forsee what was going to happen. Wonderful novel and full of supense.
