AVENGING ANGEL

Rating:
Summary: Modern noir at it's best
Review: Marlowe on amphetamines. The entire series is consistantly good and quite addictive. The action never lets up and the flippant repartee is a pleasure to read. Buy one and you'll buy them all. One rarely sees this combination of gunplay and intelligence.

Summary: hello?? wrong reviews below . . .
Review: ok this book is not some futuristic noir fiction, its a western historical romance!! The story is about a woman Wynne Elliot, a southern lady who goes west to avenge herself on a scoundrel and ends up falling in love with a stranger. Just a mild correction to the reviews below . . .

Summary: devastating laser wit, femme fatale, gin
Review: With his first published novel, Rich gives us his mercenary view of the future. Darkly creative. Imaginative and round characters. Effective plot. Booze. Rich's now almost-standard slinky seductress with a bullet size conscious. Magnesium heart. A Bad for you woman and imminently desireable.Plot suitably dynamic. Character driven. The action, based no doubt on Rich's stint as a US Army Ranger and veteran of that hellbroth, Grenada, bursts across the pages like tracer fire into a pitiless darkness. Overall, a seething work of force that will force you to ponder the future relationship between man and machine . . . and slinky femmes fatales wielding hearts of heavy metal.
