What They're Saying
Critics Review
“A fast-paced, fun read with good action and plenty of humor….Breakneck is written by Duane Swierczynski, whose writing credits for gritty crime noir comics and novels (as well as several non-fiction books) are about as long as the gams on a foxy dame.” - Lloyd Green, Pint O’ Comics
“If you like your pulp with plenty of hooks and just a touch of steaminess, then Breakneck is the book for you” - Newsarama
“A thriller that lives up to its name … races from one reveal and twist to the next towards its climax” - Bleeding Cool
“Story and artwork work brilliantly together to propel the story forward … Great plotting, snappy, witty dialogue and a screwball world view … 4⁄4” - NB Magazine
“Genius… hilariously dark adverture…The mix of humor, dramatic tension, and realistic touches that ground the story and make the heroes’ lives harder is pitch-perfect.” - Manhattan Book Review
“Dive straight in to a cracking read.” - Slings And Arrows
