Customer Reviews

A rough - gem of a first novel.

John A. Miller has created a very interesting character in Claude McCutcheon, the almost anti-hero of Cutdown.I liked the characters in the book and the prerequisite violent scenes were different in that Claude is not the typical "superhero" type who never bleeds. The violence is at times excessive, but Miller also makes Claude a likeable guy you wouldn't mind having a beer with.The conclusion is very satisfying and true to the development of the plot.This novel is a promising start to what I hope will be an extended series.Brian Sage (sagebrian@hotmail.com),Woodstock,Ontario,Canada.
