Customer Reviews

Blowout

A great techno-thriller! Zackary Scott reminds me of Clive Cussler's "Dirk Pitt". This author has a great future. I brought it on vacation with me, and shared it with three others -- and we all loved it!

A great book, a must read.

A fast paced read with an ingenious plot that leaves you guessing till the last few pages. Layton has set the standard for the new era of technology based thrillers.

Entertaining

Interesting storyline. I get tired of Laytons characters being the 'best of the best'. None of the main people in his books are ever 'average'. They are the best at whatever they do. While average people aren't very interesting, it would be more realistic if one of them failed at some point in the story.
