First, and formost I've gotta give it to Mr. Glenn, his writing skills are off the chain!! The drama and the unfolding of events. I mean I was glad that I had read "Is It A Crime" first because "Drug Relate" was the sequel so I thought. Now I'm about to go crazy, I need you to hurry up with "Payback"! Your characters became so real. I wish one day you would turn your books into a movie! It's like you become one of the characters in the book. Keep up the excellent work and don't worry about the HATERS w/any type of negativity. You are my boy and Nikki Turner is my girl! I am a true die hard fan, I love to read because reading relaxes the mind!
Much Love J-

5.0 out of 5 stars Pat Tucker goes for A WILD RIDE... with DRUG RELATED, November 30, 2005

This review is from: Drug Related (Paperback)

I enjoyed Drug Related, it makes me want to go back and read other books by Roy Glenn.

Nick Simmons tells the story of his arrest with his attorney Wanda after he's released from jail-the story is told in a dated journal format, which I liked.

The format did require me to pay attention to the story which wasn't a task because I read the book in two days (only b/c I had to work it took so long)

Nick is a former Army specialist who is hired by Gabrielle Childers, the wife of drug dealer Chilly... Gabrielle wants Nick to locate her missing chemist brother, Jake, she believes her husband is involved in his disappearance.

Nick soon discovers Jake and Chilly were working on some kind of synthetic form of crack... without giving the story away.. a bunch of twists and turns and murders later, we discover the mystery behind this street saga.

I liked that the story basically sets the stage for the sequel: Payback... so much so that I've already pre ordered mine.


~*~ Roy Glenn, add me to your growing list of fans ... I want more!!! ~*~

This review is from: Drug Related (Paperback)

I just couldn't stop reading Mr. Glenn books, first Is It a Crime: A Street Saga was "THE BOMB" then he followed it up with Drug Related which I read in two days because I just couldn't put the book down, the way the book filled in the blanks from Is It a Crime was great, but by leaving the readers hanging at the end about Shy & Black and family, it is truly a crime, all I can say is one word "PAYBACK". As a fellow reviewer stated Roy keep em' coming!
