I received an advance copy of this book from the author to review for Hacker's Source Magazine. At that time I wrote; "Joe Monks long ago proved his prowess at creating tension in the short fiction format. In fact, some of his short story work borders on legendary. The question concerning Torn to Pieces is, can he maintain that quality at novel length? The answer is a resounding: Yes. The book hits the ground running and continues at a relentless pace until its shattering climax. When the truth is revealed, it will leave you breathless. Be forewarned-once you read the first page, Joe Monks will own your every free moment." Having gone over the book again in its published format, I would only like to add that I personally can't wait for the next full length installment into novel writing from Monks. This is damn fine storytelling.
