review 1: Wow, this writer has written a LOT of books... I can't believe it's taken me so long to "discover" him. (Kinda like Columbus "discovered" America.) With so many reviews already written, I probably don't need to add my three cents' (inflation) worth, but I'm gonna say a few words, anyway.I've read some very good series before, but I'm not always a fan of them. Matter of fact, some of them flat-out annoy me. You know the kind of books I'm talking about. The ones that suck you in and then don't give you an ending, like the old "Perils of Pauline" serials at the movie theater used to do. They just leave you hanging in mid-story without a proper landing. Cliff-hangers, they call them. More like manipulation to get readers to buy the next book, if you ask me. This book is differ... moreent. Yes, it's the first in a series, but it also stands on its own two feet (so to speak) as a thoroughly enjoyable book. In a nutshell, I don't feel manipulated to buy the next book(s) in this series. (And his other series, too... like I said, this guy has written a LOT of books!) I'll be buying the other books because I WANT to read more about these characters.This is a terrific edge-of-your-seat story about a brilliant gaming executive who's forced to play a very high-stakes game. At stake? The lives of her children. They're being held and tortured by the psycho who's orchestrating the game, setting all the levels, and dictating all the moves.
review 2: My rating would really be a 2-1/2 rather than a 3, they just don't have a way to show that, so rather than giving it a 2, a 3 seemed more fair. This was a free kindle download. Many of these, I've just ended up deleting because they were either poorly written or I just can't get into them. This one was pretty decent though. Yes, you figure out who did it early on, but the story was still decent. I doubt I'd want to pay to purchase, but for a free book, it was a decent read. less
