Review
"[A] captivating follow-up....Eisler acknowledges the help of experts in many areas, but it's his own impressive literary skills that make his John Rain such a fascinating, touching and wholly believable character." Publishers Weekly
Review
"Hard-boiled down to the ice-cold core of his survival-oriented soul, [Rain is] not much more than a machine, but expertly engineered at that, and fascinating to watch in action....Slick, moody stuff, with a plot that slips out of memory even as the pages turn." Kirkus Reviews
Review
"While Eisler offers a convincing noir landscape and action scenes that could make John Woo drool, the too-complex plot is peopled by characters both sharp-tongued and hollow. Plus, Rain is given to hokey clenched-jaw quips." Entertainment Weekly
