Despite the cliched title of this review, it’s absolutely true for this book. It’s tense and always leaves you wanting more.
I greatly enjoyed this book. I had heard about it awhile ago, but never checked it out. A friend lent me their copy and I've had it sitting on my desk for a few months. Finally got around to reading it on vacation and couldn't put it down.

Looking forward to the other books in the series.

And I will have to go back and check out the show now, to see how it stands up (not as good as the book, I am sure - but are they ever??).
