Finally an intense, aggressive read with a masculine character as the main character. Martin is a smart, ruthless, and ambitious young man who seeks money and power at all costs. This is the story of his journey to the top of the heap. Reminds me a great deal of the "Prince of Thorns" series with the young protagonists who are both smart, vicious, and ambitious. As you can probably tell, the main character Martin is the best part of the book.The writing style is aggressive and stream of conscious; there are even hypen marks instead of quotation marks, just as the stream of conscious master James Joyce himself used back in the day. Not that is makes reading any harder - aside from a couple of minor formatting issues - there is no problem reading this book on the kindle. There is not a single wasted word here, which is exactly the writing style I like. I can tell the author had fun writing this one, and anyone who reads it will have fun as well.Highly recommended read; 5 stars.
