Review: Only One Reason I Didn't Rate It A Five
Rating: 4 out of 5

Once again, Jon F. Merz takes us on an exiting journey with the Fixer, Lawson. And, once again, the story was thrilling, rich in detail, and believable. Lawson is a wise cracking problem solver that seems to continuously get involved with some of the worst "bad guys" of his race. However, his sense of humor, dead pan as it can be, provides a means to lighten up the story enough to keep it flowing while maintaining the excitement.The only reason I rated this a four is that the translation to digital had enough errors to make some of the reading difficult. Apostrophes had additional characters that caused the reader to search for the letters in between. A few words were misspelled (but I find this in paperback as well). Other than the translation issues, this story, along with the first Lawson book, are well worth the time to read and enjoy. I highly recommend the Lawson series to anyone that likes a smart aleck, yet totally likable tough guy with a heart of steel (that is kind of mushy behind the protection)!
