Miami Crush by Chuck Rogers
My rating: 2 of 5 stars
The title refers to less than the last 50 pages and the cover has to do with the last two pages. The rest of the book is a very over written set up for the last two pages.
The writing is otherwise very good with very well written exposition of almost every step of the book. Pages are devoted to the development of the scaffolding and some sort of wench and vise devise. Later pages devoted to explain each character. More pages explaining the love life of a character. This goes on and on and on.
This is the first of this series I’ve read and only second of the entire Pendleton menagerie. It’s part of my Florida book collection.
About Florida: As I mentioned, the writing is very good. Involving Florida this book has a very bright spot. I love the author’s description of Miami and Miami Beach. The various communities described and placed in relation to Downtown along with the bridges. Part of the description is something I’ve never heard before: Describing Dade County with your hand. Very clever bit i’ll pass along and properly credit.
Bottom line: I don’t recommend this book. 3 out of ten points.
