Good development of the characters from the first book (especially developing the main character from smuggler to something more) and I enjoyed the fuller description of the worlds and the 'bad guys'. Wooding found the balance between making this a stand alone story and part of a series well in my o...

I don't really have much to say about this book that I didn't already say in my review of Retribution Falls. If you liked book 1 chances are good you'll like book 2.

Fun swashbuckling adventure. Should probably be read while drinking a glass of Captain's and Coke for fully immersive enjoyment. The characters grew on me as they went through more tribulations and started to transform with experience, even Frey. One I need to add to my own library, because it des...

For me, the writing, pacing, characterization and storytelling found in the tales of Ketty Jay are top notch. The dialogue is witty. Frey, as well as others have continued to fascinate. Harkin and Pinn are the weakest, but provide comic relief. The plot provides twists and turns, and even when I ant...
