5.0 out of 5 stars Roy Glenn did it again!, February 18, 2006
By 
This review is from: Payback (Paperback)
This was a must read. if you liked Drug Related, you'll love this! Throughout this book I questioned everyone. Who kidnapped Black's wife, Shy? What was Bobby keeping form Black? Who is the women who wants Shy killed? This was a suspense novel for real. Now, I am good at seeing foreshadowing in a novel, but thios one, I was soo off. If you are a Mike Black fan, do you remember the chick he was with before Shy? Well that's all I am going to say. This book was hot. It's as if you are with them through all the drama.

5.0 out of 5 stars Battling for number 1, February 2, 2006
This review is from: Payback (Paperback)
We may have to battle for that #1 fan title...

Roy Glenn, all I have to say is keep them coming... I can't wait to see what you have in store for us...

Mike Black is back in the streets of New York, he has left paradise in search of his kidnapped wife Cassandra 'Shy' Black... now it's upto the entire gang, (my fav. Nick Simmons and Freeze) to step up and help Black out... I fell for Bobby in this one too... That's the thing about Roy's books... every time I pick one up, I fall in love with characters he forces me to like.

I enjoyed Payback as well, but I feel that we (your fans) deserved more in that one monumental scene at the end... but overall once again, you've left me wanting more... how long must we wait to see what's next with Mike Black and the crew?

Did I mention I read this in two days... and that's only because I was actually espected to show up at work Monday morning. You did it again Roy... now when's the next one coming?

5.0 out of 5 stars payback, January 31, 2006
This review is from: Payback (Paperback)
Roy hey this book was off the hook. as your #1 fan i have to add that i love all your books, but as you know why this is my fav. i hunted for this book for a week when someone special told me i could order it. anyway Mike Black is and will always be my fav. character in the book. for those who havent read any of Roy's books. you must read but you have to start with "it it a crime". i love the way you made Vonda an all around woman. Roy i am so proud of you not that my opionion matter but i think God gave you a wonderful gift and you use it well. your showing brothers that there is more to life than just being a thug, selling drugs or just hanging out on someones corner robbing ppl. thank you for being a strong black man who is doing his thang. Wish i was there to congrat u in person and have my books signed.
