3.5 stars!

I enjoyed this short tale because it was fast paced and well written. However, it felt to me as if I've read this story before. I can think of two other authors off the top of my head that have plots along this same vein. I guess in the end, it's up to the author to make the story his own and I think Adam Light did a good job of that. (As a music lover, I love what he did with a certain popular song.)

Full review to come! ( )

Taken is the story of a long distance truck driver who kidnaps a waitress, from that simple premise it builds the tension nicely. It's a short story, so a quick read, helped by the fact the writing flows well. Unfortunately that's it's only real flaw, I would have like to have seen more development, especially for the waitress, there was huge potential there to make the story more involving.

But that is a minor complaint, the story itself is paced well and did grip me. Well worth checking out. ( )
