Bruce Gordon looked at his ticket, grimaced at the ONE WAY stamped on it, then tore it into bits and let the pieces scatter over the floor. He counted them as they fell; thirty pieces in all, one for each year of his life. Little ones for the two years he'd wasted as a cop. Shreds for the four years as a kid in the ring before that--he'd never made the top. Bigger bits for two years also wasted in trying his hand at professional gambling; and the six final pieces that spelled his rise from special reporter helping out with a police shake-up coverage, through a regular leg-man turning up rackets, and on up like a meteor until.... He'd made his big scoop, all right. He'd dug up enough about the Mercury scandals to double circulation. And the government had explained what a fool he'd been for printing half of a story that was never supposed to be printed until all could be revealed.

Reviews


(3 stars)

An old Western tale of the hard, tough but good hearted protagonist by default, takes on the town's really bad guys. Surprisenly, this story takes place on the planet Mars. Sci Fi? No. Okay story? Yes. The reader seems to lose energy toward the end. He must have bored himself as he droned on, slowly.

a good story


(3 stars)

The reader has a good voice. If he would just put a little emotion into it, instead of the almost monotone he uses, he would be very pleasurable to hear.

Great story


(5 stars)

Nice plot, lots of twists and turns, not much technobabble. Reader is OK even though a little flat. I highly recommend this.

odd story


(5 stars)

The reader's voice grew on me. I appreciate his calm reading of what is a very violent story.


(4 stars)

Good story of which I really enjoyed. The narrator was good and read well but unfortunately read without much feeling.


(4 stars)

The narrator's voice was a bit mild, or maybe lacking energy. But all in all it was well read.

A novel, not a story. I liked the character development.


(5 stars)

ggGrat character developmen, and an expanded plot line.


(5 stars)

Great read! Very neat story line with a length that allows for true suspense and character build... Thanks!
