1.0 out of 5 stars Utterly Baffling, February 4, 2005

By 

China Bear "Bear" (New York, NY USA) - See all my reviews

This review is from: The Art of Deception (Paperback)

If you've ever read any of Amy Grech's short horror(?) fiction, you'll find no surprises here - It's simply amazing how someone with no discernable writing skills can be published and/or taken seriously. Her characters' actions and utterances are simply ridiculous, their situations not even remotely believable.
If nothing else, Ms. Grech's attempts at writing entrench her firmly in the Bulwer-Lytton school of preposterousness, and many of her misadventures qualify as low-brow humour.

Wow! This is a great book--the author made me feel like I was in New York City. I've worked with stockbrokes...The author did a great job portraying their ruthless ways!
