Customer Reviews

Surrogates: A great read!

Surrogates is a great book! It moves along quickly and the characters are very well developed. I found myself thinking abou them when I wasn't reading. The writer uses language in a very creative manner. One caution: be careful reading. Details you skim over will most likely be needed later in the story.

Great Finish!

This book really gets you to love (and hate, when appropriate!) its characters. The characters are totally believable and realistic. The author does not whitewash anything in order to be politically correct. These are people we all know in our everyday lives and it could happen to us...Gets off the mark slow but steady and builds to a great finish. I won't spoil it for you, but the ending is worth the wait!
