dare reviewed Kickback by Damien Boyd
Review of 'Kickback' on 'Goodreads'
2 stars
Damien Boyd just keeps churning these out, none of them are much good, and yet I keep reading them. Well played, Mr. Boyd.
... Actually Kickback was a reasonably competent whodunnit, slightly better than the previous two books. Boyd is actually improving as a writer, and it's just the meticulously dull style and the wooden main character(s) that are keeping my ratings down. Kickback actually featured horse racing in a prominent role, which was kind of nice.
Still, Kickback feels like a first draft in need of an editor. Again. I find myself hoping that one will turn up someday.
