Jan Review:
Patrick W. Carr takes a unknown drunk and makes him into this outstanding character that you just have to love. You get to discover all the unique facts that make up this character that you becomes in a sense a hero of the story. The whole time i am reading this story i like really you chancing everything on a drunk well their got to be something special about him then. I also loved that the author did a great job of leaving you with questions at the end of first book so you eagerly are wanting to jump right into the next one.
