Deadpan and dark humor abounds in the writing.

This book is laugh out loud funny
Posted by a reviewer on Amazon
The last book took several years vs 12 years for the rest but it seems it was due to licensing issues and other legal obligations from the author

Good storyline but at little juvenile as it expected given the target audience

Main character’s naïveté when it comes to women is a bit far fetched
Posted by a reviewer on Amazon
It really is funny with how the main character is so smart and educated but completely clueless about social interactions
Posted by a reviewer on Amazon
I appreciated the lack of bemoaning the fact that he was forced to kill
Posted by a reviewer on Amazon
No gnashing of teeth and whining that goes on through most books over killing in self defence
Posted by a reviewer on Amazon
The way the author went about denying our hero from learning these facts was just too unbelievable
