Desolation Run Tapa dura – 16 mayo 2023
Opciones de compra y complementos
70-something Oreny "Big" Johnson has a problem. Actually, he has two. Or maybe three. The first is that he'll be dead from cancer, less than a year, which doesn't particularly concern him: "Things I've been through, dying is just one more page in a long bad book." But spending his last living days, taking his last living breath, behind steel bars does.
That's the second problem: Inmate #78903 in the notorious level-four Washington State prison known as Horseneck Bay. Then there's the money. Two million dollars of stolen military payroll, supposedly buried in some remote and mysterious south-Texas mountain range called Los Despoblados, or The Uninhabited, which sounds to Oreny like one of those places his Mama Maybell always told him to avoid. But he'll worry about that later. He has to get there first. Problem number three.
That's when he brings those two smoldering dynamite sticks he's attached himself to--his Luke-boy and Jaime--on board to help his tired old body break out of Horseneck and go dig up that money and then hightail it across the border into Mexico. And when they do break out, and Luke decides to bring his girlfriend Lauren along, and her enraged ex comes after them, and then the manhunt starts multiplying faster around them than those cancer cells inside him, Oreny still thinks he can control them. The problems, that is. At least, until Cade arrives.
Cade, the prison investigator Oreny knows is dangerous and unpredictable as a six-foot-two wolverine on eight gallons of adrenalin gone bad. And who won't stop until he catches them and does to them what Cade does best. Cade, Oreny knows better than anything else, is their biggest problem of all...
"Simultaneously brutal, bloody and beatific, this is crime fiction done right. A relentlessly paced, unpredictable page-turner powered by well-developed characters." Kirkus Reviews

5,0 de 5 estrellas Unpredictable Page-turner
Kirkus Reviews stated that James Snyder's Desolation Run was "A relentlessly paced, unpredictable page-turner powered by well-developed characters" and I couldn't agree more.
All of the characters in Desolation Run are well-crafted three-dimensional, even the villains. Snyder does such a good job of developing his characters that the reader will become emotionally involved with them. The plot is unpredictable but not erratic. Snyder knows where his well-crafted characters are going and he skillfully constructed a plot with numerous twists and turns that will get them to their destination while leaving the reader breathless.
James Snyder's Desolation Run is well written and entertaining. I highly recommend it.

5,0 de 5 estrellas Glad I came across this one :-)
Very well written novel, very evocative. Diverse, complex characters, heading towards something that's far too big for them to handle.

5,0 de 5 estrellas The Coen brothers ought to make a film of this...
This is a hard-as-nails, yet on occasion lyrically well-written, tense modern thriller. The general atmosphere reminded me very much of Cormac McCarthy’s/The Coen Brothers’ ‘No Country For Old Men’. There’s a lot of bleakness, well-described scenery, good characterisation, convincing dialogue and a twisting plot. There’s even a touch of mysticism, too. Beware (as some reviewers have mentioned), there’s lots of bad language, sex, and graphic violence. But to me, none of these things seems out of place with the author’s great writing style and plotting. Highly recommended – a real page-turner (or button-clicker, in Kindle world!)
