Sakai’s (47 Ronin) meticulous research and unparalleled storytelling have kept Usagi’s adventures compelling for nearly 40 years; the resonant, action-packed stories in this collection suggest the best may be yet to come. This volume collects issues 8–14 of the current full-color series.
Marc proves to be a charismatic protagonist, reminiscent of Breaking Bad’s Walter White, but he remains slightly underdeveloped. Rall’s (Political Suicide: The Fight for the Soul of the Democratic Party) real interest seems to be using international intrigue to deliver a pointed critique of how technological advancement has destroyed journalistic integrity.
Wilson’s follow-up to Roommaid is a fun romp with only-in-the-movies-level swoons and genuine laugh-out-loud moments. With a fairly PG rating, this one may also work for teen romance readers.
Desai’s sophomore novel (after The Marriage Game) will have readers laughing, with family dynamics and personal growth rounding things out for an enjoyable read.
The plot is more successful as a 21 Jump Street–style mystery than as a romance. Fans of Bybee’s “Richter” series may enjoy catching up with familiar characters in this spin-off, but the romance feels too underdeveloped to attract new fans.
If an extremely controlling hero (think 50 Shades of Grey) is exciting, this book will hit the spot. Otherwise, readers may want to seek out other romantic thrillers with a more equal power balance between the main characters.
