    Marcus,
    Hey, I'm going to ask a favor. Check out my Monday post for tour about heroes and comment on it. I would appreciate your thoughts on that in light of what you posted here.

    Good stuff - thanks!

    Mark,
    I did feel like the story was going so fast (or was that my reading), that I had a hard time keeping up. But then I blame it on not reading Relentless first.

    Jason, good thoughts about heroes over on your blog. I enjoyed reading them!

    Eve, pacing is such a tricky thing. Writers want us to feel breathless--especially in a suspense thriller--but we shouldn't feel like we can't keep up. I suspect a lot of the difficulty comes from having started with the second book rather than the first.

    Thanks for dropping by Bloggin' Outloud. Appreciate your analysis/summary. Becky, the tour host, mentions something similar about Robin's style of writing. Since I haven't read his books yet I just went to our local library and checked out Relentless. I'll have to read it and see for myself! lol :-) Have a great week. Lyn

    Mark,
    I like this review. Even without reading, you've provided a great way of encouraging readers to give this a try. I know how crazy the summer can make reading schedules, but this is a great way of sharing something even without a complete read.

    As for ACFW conference, sadly no. My wife is due in September and I've got a nursery to put together. I already took a week to go to Creation East so I'm going to have to skip this year. I would love to be there, though.
