A friend lent this book to me, and I'm so glad. Great discovery! Stevens is a fantastic thriller writer, in the vein of John Grisham. Catastrophic was an intriguing novel—it's extremely relevant to our modern society, which is run by lawyers, in many respects. Also, America's crazed obsession with football is highlighted. We get an up-close look at the trials and tribulations of one of our modern gladiators, Tyler.I found Stevens' writing to be very engaging, and I thought that all of the characters—even the minor ones—were well-developed and very real. From Shane to Margie, there was something familiar about each and every one of them. For me, this is really important. It's the characters that reel me in, and these folks definitely did.Catastrophic definitely made me a Dustin Stevens fan, and now I can't wait to dig into more of his novels!
