Rating: Summary: SIMS - Book Two Review: Patrick Sullivan has gotten himself into something that's much bigger than what he realized. SimGen, understanding the repercussions of what a publicized legal battle with a group of SIMs may do to the company, has raised the ante on the lawyer Sullivan. SimGen sets forth a course of events that will attack both his personal and professional lives. Will Patrick Sullivan's resolve and character be enough when things start to fall apart, badly?Romy Cadman is the wildcard. She's being backed by an unknown organization with deep resources that is intent on stopping SimGen from producing more "product". Romy finds Patrick Sullivan and show's him what the ugly side of life looks like for these SIMs. Patrick has some soul searching to do. Was it really about the SIMs or just the fame and possible fortune that would come from taking such a high profile case? This is the second novella in what F. Paul Wilson said in his first book, would probably be 5 or more installments. This is a fine follow up to La Causa, that opens up the plot even more and starts new thread lines. Unfortunately, for any reader who might just run across this book, it is not a self-contained book. It just picks up where La Causa left off. There is no recap of events and a new reader would be pretty lost. Judging by the first two books, this series could be one large book that was just chopped up into bite-sized pieces, to make a series of chapbooks. I would suggest to anyone to try and buy, borrow, beg, or steal La Causa to enjoy the full impact of this great story. As with La Causa, The Portero Method is only available as a signed limited edition through Cemetery Dance Publications. The print run was only 750 copies. There is no indication that all future installments will be any different. So, grab one while you can.
