Nickel Plated Audiobook

" a book about the survival of a Foster child in a messed up adult world... "

" Wesley Payne on the real streets. Darker, nastier, more personal. "

" Seriously one of the best books I've read in a while. Having a child hard boiled detective as the protagonist was such an ingenius idea and the way he crafted the story was awesome! "

" A very good first novel. The voice was good, although he often came off as being much older than eleven. The way it was written implies there will be another, which I will read. "

" Nickel is not your average twelve year old. He lives on his own, grows pot in his backyard, and spends his free time hunting down and blackmailing pedophiles. While Nickel-Plated features a likable main character and an engrossing plot, this book was just a little too unbelievable for me. "

" The author goes into dark territory here. Nickel is a warrior, part of a loosely organized underground network at war against child predators and if the reader needs to suspend disbelief that anyone that young can act like Nickel, the payoff is a story that can't be put down and will haunt you long after it's been read. "

" Weird and interesting, kind of a downer, but I'd suggest it nonetheless. "

" I wasn't expecting much from this book but was pleasantly surprised. "

" Usually when I see something I don't recognize on my Kindle, it means I downloaded something free and it probably sucks, so this was such a nice surprise. "

" Pretty good, quick read. I'd read more from this author, and would like to read more of Nickel's story. "

" Great pre-teen protagonist on a mission! "

" If you are able so suspend your disbelief to the point where you buy a young teenaged boy as a hard-boiled detective, living on his own and likewise solving heinous crimes, then this novel will work for you. It did for me. "

" I just couldn't get in to this book. The idea that a 12-year old foster child runaway could evade authorities by selling weed and blackmailing child molesters online is pretty bogus. The title character is not believable. I felt that a grown man was telling this story. "

" I enjoyed this story even though I did have to suspend my disbelief a few times in regards to the main character. "

" Terrific voice, interesting protagonist, and a great scenario. A good and interesting read. "

" The 12 year old protagonist reminded me of nothing so much as Lois McMaster Bujold's Miles Vorkosigan-- OBVIOUSLY a good sign!! There need to be more books like this in the world. "
