This is the book I have most looked forward to all year. Can not wait to get my hands on it.

Got it today and read it before anything else. It's a great sequel, and follows on from the Hunter really well while allowing Cooke to diversify things a bit with how there's some more visual variety to things. Not just the different approaches to the heists, which were all really well done and kept it interesting (and allowed some more humour in things due to the fact it was about characters who weren't as serious as Parker is), but also things that aided the explanation of the plot, like the panel showing the letter with the boxes explaining what the coded parts of it meant, and the map showing Parker's trip from Miami to New York and detailing all the stops he took along the way. Great stuff all round. Only disappointment for me is that the next one's not out till 2012.

Read it. Loved it. Need Marty McFly's time machine to go straight to 2012 and the day the next one hits stands. I see more awards headed Darwyn's way.
