Book Review: Those Who Walk in Darkness

 

Those Who Walk in Darkness by John Ridley 

Honestly, don't waste your time with this book.  Mr. Ridley just published the sequel to this one.  I can't imagine it getting any better.  The story centers around the main character Soledad "Bullet" O'Roark.  It didn't connect for me why she is so troubled and I didn't really care that much either to find out.  The backdrop is in a world of mutants with special powers (sound familiar yet?).  As a cop, it's her job to eradicate the mutants.
