Thank you *stoppoppingthep" for the enthusiastic review and everyone else for your interest and kind words.The overwhelming response from different sources has encouraged me to start writing three sequels to the Callaghan Tetralogy. The new trilogy will narrate Callaghan's challenging life to the end of 2015. (Patience is needed, though, since it will take some time before they'll be ready to be published …)

That is really great. I could not put this book down, and I'm sure your other ones will be just as interesting. I wish you all the best in your endevours and look foward to reading them sometime in the future.

Thanks for this great review. I like how you presented Callaghan in very intriguing way. Your evaluation of the book is also very helpful. I'm looking for a light read these days so this may not be for me right now, but I am still glad to have come across your review. I hope I'll get the chance to read books like this some day.

Already commented, but this sounds like a great series. A good thing that the author provided a page with the characters names, as I understand there are over 50 characters!

Congratulations to the author on the great review and for being the Book of the Day! :tiphat:

Commented as well, but it does sound like a great read! To have two OBC reviewers give the same book very close scores must mean that the author did a wonderful job presenting the story!

By the way, just seeing the word mafia within your review sends shivers down my spine!

Great review! Like you, this isn't really my genre but since you recommend it despite the fact I might have to read it anyway!

I know I've already commented, but with the first installment being BOTD I just had to come and reread this excellent review!! I'm very interested in all of the characters, thank you for mentioning that the author includes that page. :D
