I have just 'discovered' this author and am thouroughly hooked.

His writing style is wry and amsuing and the main character Mac is interesting. The characters are easy to follow and I like the thought processes and humor that is thrown in. Very clever.

I am really enjoying this author and can't wait to find more of his books.

This book was extremely meticulous and well crafted. The story line was interesting and unpredictable. This was an incredibly intelligent write done in a fun in entertaining way.  I can see this book being classic fifty years from now. I highly recommend this.

Having read another book by M.R. Mathias (not in this series) which I enjoyed well-enough, I wasn't sure what to expect, but I liked this one far better and wish I could give it ten stars. The pacing was very fast, which I loved. The characters were well-written, and well-developed; the story was pretty humorous in some places and the writing overall was excellent. My only regret was that I started the series here and not earlier so I have quite a bit of catch up to do. Still,  I could barely put the book down once I started. Great book from a great writer.

This is one of the most entertaining book I have read for a long, long time, I hated for it to end.  The writing is smart and offers a laugh out loud situation on every other page or so.  I tried to find more books by this author but could find none.

So well written.  Love the way all the characters interact and the stories just flow into each other and continue into the following books.
I especially loved Locke and his story.
The writing is so emotional and hilarious at the same time.
Cannot say enough good things about this series.
Hope another follows this soon.

This book had everything I love in a book - from mystery to little jokes and references - it was so well written. The characters are so well crafted I became connected with them almost immediately. The story pulled me in and I could barely let go.

This series is the most entertaining Sci-Fi I've been able to find in quite a while. I applaud the author for creating some truly iconic characters, great humor (including some silliness that works well), and lots of twists and turns in the story. The only slight negative I can mention is that all of the books in the series need editing for minor typos and the like.  Nevertheless, the books are so well written and lively that you really don't stumble problematically over the editing flubs.  These books are so much fun to read; that's the way science fiction should be.

I loved this book so much. It's written in a very witty way, which makes the seemingly preposterous subject matter of the book into a truly great read! It's one of those stories that is so odd that it almost shouldn't be good, but the writing makes it absolutely wonderful.

I'd never heard of this book before my best friend recommended it to me and I'm so glad that she did!
I loved the writing and plot so much! It was really engaging and fun. I thought the characters were really relatable and real. These some really great dark humor from a couple of the characters which I really liked. And Lex was amazing. She's exactly what I look for in a female character.
But the best part of this book is how entertaining it is. I really enjoyed reading it and I'd definitely recommend it.

I enjoyed the story line and the characters are so very diverse. The writing is clever and entertaining. I can certainly imagine that a very entertaining sequel could come from the fun and interesting tale.

I loved this book, pure entertainment and wonderful writing, especially for this genre.  I thought the characters were likable, the dialog funny at times and just a fun wild ride.  I didn't want it to end...even at 600+ pages.  More, more from this author, but take your time so the second, third, etc., books are just as exciting!

The writing style is great, as usual, and its humor, made me laugh on plenty of occasions. The flow of action is nice, it comes with the right amount of breaking a scene when action is at its peak, and takes you elsewhere, bringing it to peak as well, and especially in the last part of the book, when there are several parallel actions happening at the same time, all very relevant for the general plot, it really kept me reading. My last reading spree was actually coinciding with a dinner with a very important customer - which I was late to because I had to read the book to the end, I couldn't put it down.

I enjoyed the book, it was a good book, even though not entirely what I expected, but it was a very entertaining read. It could have been better, but everything always can.

Very funny, entertaining, full of laughs, real life stories we can all relate to. A beautifully written book with a keen,delightful sense of humor, great dialogs, touching many true subjects in our lives. I was laughing so hard at times, I could barely breath, my husband can hardly wait to read it also.

Sit back and enjoy the stories.
