The Bricklayer

tightly plotted, fast-paced read. The action kept things moving fast enough that you can't tell that the writing isn't quite up to snuff. It's not bad tho...just something's missing. Not sure what it is, but it's the difference between a Starting Shortstop and an Utility Infielder–both are great players, but one's better. In a few novels, I can easily see myself taking that back.
