review 1: With the advent of self-published e-books, it's very difficult to cull through the chaff to find a few good books or a good series, and there still isn't any reliable book review source (except for Goodreads!).IMO, Tyler Dilts clearly demonstrates the skills and technique of a be...

review 1: This was a pretty satisfying mystery novel. The characters were pretty cool and the references to pop culture were spot on. I felt like the ending was a little too perfect, but also good way of everyone getting their just desserts and making a difference in the lives of others....
