Nothing like a thriller when the plan falls apart and the heroes have to wing it! Makes it all the harder for the reader to guess what is going to happen...
Fast and enjoyable.

Big screen material! This talented author brings the reader into a new world where adventure awaits at every turn. The descriptions are well though out, the characters pop off of the page. Don't miss this one!
Monticelli's original Italian has been translated to English for her Red Desert series, giving a charming flavor to the prose. Her characters are 3d, and her hard sci-fi setting is researched impeccably. Novella-length book one, "Point of no return," serves as an introduction, constructing the hooks that power future volumes and ramping up the tension and mystery.

Ecellent read, this is a book that stands out as something special. Great story, well plotted and unmissable,.
A thrilling revenge story. Looks awesome. Can't wait to get my paws on it!
Great premise, cool cover!
Good pace and well thought out. I love Glenn's writing style and the depth of his characters always keeps me interested. Great book !
Love the writing style, the 'voice' that sounds so clear its like he's sitting next to my bed reading to me. Check out his website; it's cool without being in any way contrived. Great cover designs, too. This writer is 'one to watch', as they say. Not all short story writers try their hands at novel writing - Carver didn't - but I can't help feeling that if Glenn doesn't it would constitute a crime in its own right. For now, though, let this little gem wet your appetite!
