But what CIA agent Cormac is pitching just might be a little more than even the questionable former defense attorney and his comrades can handle.
They don’t know where they are. They have no idea what’s going on. They’re at the mercy of someone they don’t know and their lives are on the line.
Remo, Lester and Hollis find themselves in an inexplicable situation with someone they don’t like and no way out. To make matters worse, their survival is dependent on the worst possible candidate ever. Remo’s got a target on his back and one helluva problem on his hands. How far are people willing to go to put him out of his misery?
It’s not like Remo’s never dealt with crazy before, but this kind of crazy is way out of his wheelhouse. Cormac’s job is supposed to get him one step closer to his son, not get him killed.
REMO WENT WILD is the third book in the Remo Cobb series and picks up immediately where the insanity of REMO WENT DOWN left off.

"Mike McCrary is definitely a writer to watch." - John Rector, Wall Street Journal Bestselling Author of The Ridge, Already Gone, and The Cold Kiss.
"It's almost inhuman how frequently and effectively this book ups the ante on the reader." - Rob Hart, author of The Warehouse
“… a Hollywood action film in print form.” – Austin Statesman
McCrary is, as the kids say (or used to say?), a beast. This is just as jam-packed with violence, humor, and style as the first two books in the series. I'd be hard-pressed to find another working author with as strong a voice as McCrary's. Get it. Read it. Know it.
This isn't an easy book to review, as it isn't like anything else that I have read. But it is laugh-out-loud funny in places and with lots of violence and bad language. But it did keep me engaged and entertained. This is the third book in the series and the first that I have read, and I believe that it probably would have been better to have read the first two books before I read this one, as at times I really didn't have the faintest idea what was going on! This book isn't for the faint-hearted, it contains a lot of bad language and violence, but if you are a fairly broad-minded adult who likes a laugh then this could be the book for you. I received a complimentary copy of the book and have voluntarily reviewed it.
This is the third book in the series, and it did NOT disappoint! This is adult comedy/action/adventure, and when the books are packed with action, it can be hard to keep that up. But Mike McCrary does an awesome job of entertaining. I love the Remo character, and I enjoy a good laugh. I cannot wait for the fourth book to come out! It's supposed to be out in November, and I am really glad. Just in time for the Holidays! A present for me. I don't recommend this for kids, due to language used. But the language fits the character and his crazy life. I know I am going to have withdrawal symptoms at the end of this series. Reader withdrawal will be the diagnosis! This series plays like a movie in my head. Come get your dose of crazy, and laugh all your stress away.......
Another great story from Mike McCrary and the third in the series. Definitely not one for the faint hearted. I would definitely recommend this book. I can't wait for the next in the series.
Relentless - I was clueless about the storyline, so I really didn't want to read Relentless after I read the first couple of chapters. I don't care about LA, designer clothes and fancy cars; you got em, great but so what. But I've read a few books by Mr. McCrary and love his work, so I hung in there. Glad I did because the pace picked up, the plot turned intriguing and suspenseful, and the characters ranged the gamut from weak to pure evil, with plenty of manipulation from several directions. I figured out a few things, except one thing: what was actually wanted in the end by the bad guy. I want to say more, but I don't do spoilers; this is a review, not a book report. Another well written, well thought out story. 5*
Getting Ugly - Action packed, fast paced suspense with interesting characters. The plot kept me immersed in the story. Ugly is a fun, good character. Well written, but vulgar language happy.
Steady Trouble #1 - Action packed, fast paced with an interesting plot and characters. Of the three books, I've read, this is the best, with Getting Ugly second (fun, good character). Cowtown, yes; A-Town?, must be near NYC or Chi-Town. Standalone, but there's definitely more in the future. Well written with believable characters and plot. Do want to see more of Teddy. This book is different from the Remo series, but just as enjoyable.
Steady Madness #2 – Picks up where Steady Teddy ended. Another well written, action-packed, suspense filled book. The characters from Steady Teddy #1 have growth and you either love em or hate em. You’re definitely rooting for the good guys even when they’re bad. Even the new additions are interesting. There’s a surprise at the end of the story that’s heartwarming, actually a couple of em. I had to laugh when I saw BAD WORDS INC. on the title page, since Mr. McCrary is always reviewed for his vulgar language. He has a sense of humor as you can see in his books. I volunteered to review his books many books ago. He is one of my favorite new authors.
Remo Went Rogue #1 - Action packed, fast paced suspense with a cast of characters typical of this type of novel. Cut n Shoot ain't that little any more. Well written, but too much vulgar language, although that's typical for these characters. If you like Elmore, you'll like this book.
Remo Went Down #2 - Great! Another action packed, fast paced thriller full of suspense, characters that keep getting better and a twisting plot. Better than Rogue, still with the vulgar and the violence works. I couldn't put the book down, it wouldn't let me until I finished. Do read Rogue first, and then hang on for the ride with Down.
Remo Went Wild #3 - I couldn't stop belly laughing or put the book down. The descriptions are just poetry, vivid. Remo 3 is the best of the lot, so far. Well written, intense, suspense filled, with humor over the top. Mr. McCrary has a good thing going here with Remo. It seems he's cut the vulgar language some, but what's there, just belongs - these are real thugs who haven't been to church in awhile, if ever. LOL. (Since in the Amazon reviewing community, non Christians and real people curse.)
The characters are getting stronger with each book and the plot still remains twisting and engaging. Any more folks, and we're talking spoilers. I'll let you discover the adventure on your own. With over 50K books in my possession, not counting the local library, I don't reread many books. When Remo Went Berserk comes out, I'll be rereading the first three just to get into the mood to savor Berserk. McCrary goes on my bookshelf with Ludlum, my favorite author.
Remo Went Off #4 - Wow, Remo's story comes to a close - maybe? This book is just as action packed, fast paced and intriguing as the previous volumes. Well written plot; realistic characters; realistic and appropriate dialog; just the items that make a good story.
You must read these books in order to get the most out of this series. But if you can't, don't let it stop you from reading this or any other book. Once you get started, you'll have a difficult time putting these books down. Some folks will get offended by the vulgar language, which ranges in frequency usage thorough out the books, but the characters are criminals and this is their norm. I contacted the author to review his books.
