Great weekend read
This book was recommended by BookBrowse as a book I might like. The bad news is: why in the world haven't I read this before now? The good news? It's the first in a series!

Wow! This book is wonderful! It is rather reminiscent of old detective noir books. I could almost hear a wailing sax in the background as I read.

Ryder and Nautilus have such a wonderful rapport that goes beyond friendship. I can't wait to read the next book in this series.

Very creepy book. Loved it. The title is perfect. The main character (Carson) is the Hundredth Man. It's a reference from a joke at the very beginning of the book and it really does define this character. Looking forward to this author's next novel!

The tension compels you to turn the page. Almost impossible to put down.
