Saint Justice by Mike Grist, Michael John Grist
3.0
This is a good story with a great plot. It has plenty of non-stop action, a fast pace and an excellent narrator.
Why only 3 starts? Well, for me there was too much gratuitous violence and torture, quite barbaric is some cases and that turns me right off. Then there's the unbelievably indestructible hero. The reader gets the impression that if he was run over by a tank he'd strap a splint on a few broken bones then get straight back into battle. Hit by a bazooka? He'll be limping a bit afterwards. I'm all for tough guy heroes but I thought Wren stretched the imagination to the limit.
