"Great story line.Kept me entertained right from the start.I was a little dissappointed with the ending though. All the way through he was the toughest of the tough and seemed to "break" relatively easily (haha, not sure how long I would last being tortured)! "

— stan, 2/25/2011" Full of action, but so far, the characters are a bit flat and stock. Fun to read, but I'm hoping Cain adds some depth to the characters. "
