I have to say....
I've listened to all the FDO's stories to date with the exception of The Rookie (not a football fan) and this is definately my favorite.  It reminds me weirdly of The Darkness what with all the twisted supernatural and mafia stuff going on =3

The story doesn't just take place on the football field. If you like Star Wars and/or The Godfather, you'll dig this story.

This one has quickly ascended to one of my favorites.  I really dig the humor and the deep feelings in the story.  His character development has matured so much and I really enjoy watching it evolve through his works.  Listen to them in order and you'll see what I mean...  Thoughts?

Re: I have to say....
...you give it at least 3 episodes.  I didn't give The Rookie a chance when it first came out because I thought it was all football.  But the story is so much more than that.  It's very engaging and has some neat twists and turns.

I love all of the books by Sigler.  Nocturnal was the toughest for me to get through - only for the fact that the kid stuff just leaves me a bit squeemish.  As a Dad I constantly fear harm coming to my kids - so this isn't really a surprise to me.  I LOVED the Brian/Pookie give and take though.  Great stuff.

Re: I have to say....

There was one point that really annoyed me was in the taxidermists back room. Here you have an Ancestor being mounted and stuffed.

 

Scott you did this in "The Rookie", with the reference to "rocktopi drink". That annoyed me as well. If you will forgive me a moment, but unless you can connect the hundreds of year between "Earthcore" and "The Rookie". If I remember the history of the "rocktopi", 3 space ships surviving to land and then are they wiped off the earth? I think the premiss was that the 3 ships were the last survivors.

 

I am not sure if this is for future plot twists, or the FDO trying to be cute. I think it is easier to go back from future books and make cross connections then it is to start with a cross connection (between series of books), you may not be able to connect them.

 

I will say that in the subway seeing a poster of "Jack Wakes UP", was priceless.  

 

Rex = king, a little obvious.

 

 Looking forward to the next installment of "Nocturnal" and finding out the roots of the savior and if they are kings that could not be king.

Re: I have to say....
