I'm not sure why I keep reading and increasingly liking these books. They're pretty dumb, painfully affected, and are only as stylish as joyless repetition of "fuck" can make them.

But they truck along nice and violent-like at such a good pace, with enough spectacle and action to apparently make me a committed fan of the series. ( )

This third volume in the saga of the Gweat and Tewwible Avery Cates is non-stop action from beginning to end. Amazingly enough, this series just keeps getting better and better. (However, the books do need to be read in order for most enjoyment. The first two books, The Electric Church and The Digital Plague are also fantastic and well worth a read.)

This series follows the Gunner Avery Cates as he kills his way through all of his problems in a disturbingly bleak future history. Lots of dark humor, and plenty of bullets flying keeps the reader riveted to the story. This is one of the best science fiction/action series out there. ( )

Rather bloodthirsty which made it seem like it was drawn out. Not as good as the previous ones in the series. ( )

I won this book thru Library thing and I have never read anything by this author. I always hate that I am picking up on something that is #3 in the series. I am not a fan of science fiction anyways and I found in certain parts of the book, I felt lost. I think this book is more geared towards men who like the sci-fi adventure novels. The language is a bit strong more for mature audiences. All in all, a good book to win a copy. ( )

I like these books. They are exactly what they are meant to be: violent noir adventures, set in a nasty future. Avery is a product of his times, and while I can't say I *enjoy* going along with him given the sort of things that tend to happen to him, I am entertained by it.

Having said that, there were not one but two twists towards the end of The Eternal Prison that I did not see coming, and the fact that this is not the end of the series was not one of them.

I can't wait to see what happens to our foulmouthed hero next. ( )
