4 If You Read Part 1...2 If You Haven't
599410
I have an issue with the latest practice of novelists publishing portions of their books as part/volume 1,2, 3 etc when in fact the volumes are actually more chapters of a single book.

If you have not read&nbsp;<a data-hook="product-link-linked" class="a-link-normal" href="/The-DEAD-LOOP-1/dp/B008S2WGFY/ref=cm_cr_arp_d_rvw_txt?ie=UTF8">The DEAD LOOP 1</a>, I highly recommend that you go back and do so.  If you haven't purchased any in the collection, then I recommend that you purchase&nbsp;<a data-hook="product-link-linked" class="a-link-normal" href="/The-DEAD-LOOP-Complete-Trilogy-Edition/dp/B0098C1EMY/ref=cm_cr_arp_d_rvw_txt?ie=UTF8">The DEAD LOOP: Complete Trilogy Edition</a>, as it includes all three parts of the story.  If you already have parts 1 and 2, may I recommend that you go ahead and purchase&nbsp;<a data-hook="product-link-linked" class="a-link-normal" href="/The-DEAD-LOOP-3-DELIVERANCE/dp/B00987SHOW/ref=cm_cr_arp_d_rvw_txt?ie=UTF8">The DEAD LOOP 3: DELIVERANCE</a>, because you will need it to finish the story.

Which brings me back to "The Dead Loop 2: Dark Times".  It begins the "day" after book 1 ends.  In this book Ewan discovers that he has absolute freedom to do whatever he wants within the day, with no consequences for the next day.  The only price is by the end of the day, Ewan will die.  This portion of the story is an introspection for Ewan.  It is the age old question:  If you could commit any crime, without anyone ever finding out and without any repercussions, would you commit it?

While the author does plays with this question I feel he did not delve into it far enough.  The ending of this portion came so abruptly and I am still not sure, how far Ewan would have been willing to go if he had more days to play with.

While I would not recommend purchasing this story as a stand alone.  I do recommend purchasing the entire story as I found it quite thought provoking.  (The only issue is the horrible editing of the 3rd installment)

ETA removed sentences regarding formatting and spelling as these have been fixed with an update.

If you read parts 1-3, then this is a must. It was good, funny and interesting, and my only criticisms are that it was too short and seemed to just end randomly, rather than reaching a natural conclusion.

If you have read the 4 hour workout and the 4 workweek, then you have read this book....It is a mixture of the two books in one book.  I skipped through half of the parts because I had already read them.

4 out of 5 only because there were sections that were hard to read when the many people were introduced and described. I would definitely recommend these books if you like these type!

If you want to find your way when your lost get the 2 book together. the 4 agreements with companion. read the 4 agreements first then companion otherwise it won't make sense. i took notes , well journaled and that really helped.

I have read Vols. 1 & 2 and would distinguish them as follows:
Vol. 1 : the possibilities of bitcoin. I read it with eyebrows raised in hopeful anticipation of the world to come.
Vol. 2 : the practicalities of bitcoin. I read it with a gently furrowed brow in contemplation of the world I currently live in.

As an enthusiast I couldn't put them down, and now I am a better bitcoiner for having read these books.

I almost read part two first but stopped and searched the author and got this one free ( part one). I also purchased four other books by her. I will update this review after I read part two, Rendezvous with danger.

Read both books, in order.  They may have been printed as 2 separate books, but they read like one long, continuous story.

Suspend your beliefs, let the future take you over, think about the implications, and read on.  Are you into IT?  Have you read his prior books (this is #4 in a series, start at #1) then go forth and enjoy.  I did.

This book was awesome.....however, I think you should be told it's a part 1 and 2......I read almost dead  a while ago  and nothing was said about if she only knew being the first book......now I'm re-reading almost dead to familiarize myself

Then you're in for a great time.  The book is wonderful. In fact,  I'm on the 5th book and its been delightful.

I only mention the 1st 2 pages because they're at the very beginning and nearly kept me from reading the series. That would've been my loss and i don't want it to happen to others.  So I wanted you to know the 1st 2 pages are an anomaly. It gets SO much better.

Story line was good but  part 1 and 2 could have combined into one book!

Read books 1 and 2. Easy reading. Adult content. Good series for reading pleasure.

It really is 'Part 1'. And you've got to buy all the other parts to find out whatever the story is all about. I don't mind paying for a book, I do mind being suckered into paying for a book. Part 1 isn't all that interesting to me (though the author tries to plant little teasers e.g; he doesn't wear shoes, but he's damn rich and indoors so who cares if he wears shoes or not?) for me to want to buy the other 3 or 4 parts of the one book to want to find out what his and/or her phobias are and how they help each other overcome it all.

This book is laying out the work for the great part 2, but you have to read this first to understand, the writer knows what shes doing. stay with it, you won't regret it.

If you've come this far you should probably just read it. There is two more books in the series I guess.

This has been a great story, but being a 2 part story my advice is GET THEM BOTH . THAT WAY YOU DON'T HAVE TO WAIT BECAUSE IT STOPS IN A WAY YOU WANT TO CONTINUE TO KNOW WHAT HAPPENS NEXT. I'm fixing to get the rest right now if I can. It was good enough I want to continue it now.
