Cast of Shadows Audiobook

" One of the better thrillers I've read with loads of surprises sprinkled all through the book. Plus the author tosses in some good issues to make you think. "

" I really enjoyed this book. "

" It was okay, but I don't typically enjoy thrillers. I spend too much time trying to figure out "who done it" and I'm usually disappointed as there are always too many coincidences. This read was no exception. "

" I read this awhile back and forgot and picked it up to read again. Obviously, the topic interests me. It's the delivery that wasn't so great. The idea of cloning a daughter's killer in order to see what he looks like when the clone grows up is a good idea, and the twist later is interesting, but it felt too overdone with the avatars and gaming world, etc., like the author was trying to fit in every sci-fi tech topic he could. I just didn't like his style. If I could, I'd give it 2 1/2 stars. "

" Extraordinary. Recommended by my "go-to guy", Rick Kogan, it has all the prerequisites: intriguing story, enviable command of language and compositon, and a dreaded conclusion. See also his relatively new, The Thousand! "

" I was pleasantly surprised by the this book. I liked that the subject matter was timely and different. The myriad of characters introduced seemed well connected by the events in the story. "

" I would never normally pick up a sci-fi book, but this one is great! "

" A very interesting and well developed book, it's overly complex at times (the person before me was reduced to writing notes in the library book to keep track of events), but it all spawns from a very interesting premise and is a good read if you can get through it. "

" Interesting concept, but hard to recommend. So many little story lines were presented and the story felt a little cluttered. The more interesting characters were not given enough time. I would recommend waiting for it to come out on DVD, or just not reading it. "

" What a wonderful read! Te author did an amazing job developing a lot of characters and threading them appropriately though out the story. Highly recommend! May read more by the author! "

" Excellent twisty novel. "

" An enjoyable and thoughtful thriller. Interesting concepts although sometimes it seemed like quite a stretch to fit the story to the necessary plot elements. A few too many ironic twists and turns at the end to be fully satisfying for me. "

" So many twists and turns that you're left dizzy. It was a very good read that both disturbed and surprised with layer after layer. "

" I loved this book. It kept me intrigued throughout. "

" Loved, loved, loved this book. Read it quite a few years ago, but I continue to reccommend it. Has such an interesting story line. "

" This was OK, no more. Could have been a lot better, but little things niggle at you the whole way through it. "

" This book has crime, science fiction (that really isn't science fiction since human cloning is right around the corner), love, betrayal and mystery. Its one of those books that you want to see the movie, just as long as its exactly like the book. "

" Great character development, lots of crazy twists, and absolutely original. Kept my interest the entire way through, kept me guessing. "

" Interesting concept. I thought the middle dragged, but there was enough twist and turns going on to keep me engaged throughout. "

" Really strange book, but it's a page-turner with quite a few (depressing) twists. And it's set in Chicago. "

" Loved this book! Not my usual fare, but so glad I didn't put it down. It deals with cloning, but in a way that doesn't distract from the story. Great read! "

" Who knew when I used to see Kevin as Leslie's Notre Dame friend that he was going to turn out to be such an inventive, smart, verbal writer? A superb & enjoyable science thriller you can't put down. "

" Interesting book -- shows both sides of the debate on cloning.... Way too many coincidences, though... I know that is part of the plot, but got to be distracting. Enjoyable, but not fantastic. "
