Really cool story! Wasn't sure what to expect since it's the second book of the series and I didn't read the first but I really liked the humanity of the main character. Will probably read more of this series!

Evan Smoak is the Nowhere Man, always able to be found on the other end of a phone line that the people he helps forward on to others. But this time, Evan is the one who needs help, when he’s kidnapped by a violent crazy man who wants to blackmail him for the millions of dollars in his bank account. This book was quite the ride - very intense with lots of twists. I prefer it when Evan is helping others but really liked how the author weaved this experience into Evan’s overall sense of self and purpose. Looking forward to the next one.

Very different from anything I have read before. The writing is phonamonal. As I was reading this I can just see the way it would turn into an action packed movie.

This book just drug on and on and on. I loved the first in the series, that is the only reason I kept with this one. Evan is such a great character but this book was so repetitive. How many times did we need the same fight scenes?

A bit disappointing after the first book.
It was very slow paced and not much happened until towards the end.
Evan's abilities suddenly went from legendary and unchallenged to little above average.

Loved this one as well. The middle was a bit slower, in my opinion. But it was still more than enough to keep me pulled in and entertained. Will definitely be continuing on to the next one. :)
