I have to admit, I loved it very much, very interesting and what not. vbdad, Again I am impressed with your wide range of applicable knowledge. I read Black House and Talisman about 5 months ago, awesome. Just finished Dream Catcher and that one was hard to stay with, as the subject matter was not only very twisted, but I keept feeling sick to my stomach the whole time. Oliver Twist: So far Oliver just got beat down by the Undertaker cause he had to to please his wife. Plenty of novel left and it's a very catching story!!!

It is totally unlike anything else he's ever written. Go ahead and get the first book - you'll be hooked! And you won't have to wait years to buy the other 6 like I did!!!

I doubt I can stand it, I can hardly stomach poor Oliver getting the bad end of things no matter what he does. So far he simply cannot win. I have already bought Tale of 2 Cities, it was a bundle so that'll be next.
