A review of a book I wrote. I absolutely love this person.
1.0 out of 5 stars Insipid, April 23, 2013

This review is from: Dead Last (Kindle Edition)
Overall, I found Dead Last to be flat and boring. The tropes border on juvenile.
The male characters make use of several standard crime personalities, with a couple interesting standouts. The female characters are interchangeable stereotypes who seem to exist primarily to help the main character for some unknown reason and to serve as his sexual outlet. The main character's actions and thoughts are strangely unaligned at times, with some actions, such as a couple instances of sexual sadism, seeming to have no purpose at all beyond misguided attempts at edginess. The treatment of the Russians, particularly their broken english, is simply lazy.
The premise is interesting, but ultimately fails to be carried out in a compelling way. The plot lacks dynamism, the scenes lack detail, and the characters lack depth.

A video by Marc Jennings with music by me, Noboru Watanabe.
It is a very nice documentary about football in the UK. Please have a look.
