5 stars

Best book I've read all year. Just so so good. Damn!

Not for the faint of heart or the easily shocked and offended for sure. I had no problem with the Jamaican patois, though, I guess if you listen to this instead of reading it, it may be difficult. An epic tale with a great cast of characters. Never for a minute boring. Oh my god I loved this book. My thoughts are all awhirl!
