Superior Saturday
An very unhappy. have not recieved the book nor any reply from seller I would not have even given it one star but has to give it a rating to continue

Superior Saturday feels just like a weekend, too short
After excitedly reading the first five books I was anxious to read this one. What a let down this particular book was. It feels very stripped down and rushed. There is no real excitement at all during the quick drive to an ending. As others have noted this one feels unfinished and also ends on a cliffhanger, as if the last chapter was missing. The plot is very straight forward and the antagonist who we have had glimpses of through the other novels shows up briefly and never really challenges our hero during this whole story. Superior Saturday should have been a tougher foe to defeat but we never really see any interaction between the two main characters.

If you equate his previous books to be movies, this book would fall in at a 1/2 hour tv episode mark. Sorry, I so wanted to love the book, but it was quick, shallow and unsatisfying. I still love the universe that he has built and hope to see an epic resolution in his next novel. Hopefully the right people will see all of our reviews and take it to heart and not let us down again.

lacking in substance
I had so long awaited this book and was disapointed with it's lack of depth. I hate when a book has no ending and you must read the next to feel satisfied. That is what this book did, it left you hanging.
