I'm always reluctant to give up on a book but a third of the way through this one I had to ditch it. I wasn't sure about it from the first page really, but I persevered hoping it would improve. The writing style is a bit basic, and although parts of the plot are potentially quite intriguing, it's all just a bit daft and not entirely believable. Main character Angel's sudden transformation from battered prostitute to streetbound ass-kicking mercenary isn't properly explained and just seems slightly ridiculous. Mark's realisation about what happened to him as a child is all too convenient, coming as it does after (we're told) years and years of him remembering nothing at all - but then, because the plot requires it, he remembers - just like that. Just not convincing at all. Added to that some of the dialogue is laughable.

Not a bad story as such... just badly realised, and way too linear as well. Difficult to recommend this one.
