A review by bookoholic
Fearless by M.W. Craven

dark mysterious tense fast-paced

5.0

Fearless is the first instalment in the new series by the bestselling author M.W. Craven. As the biggest fan of Poe & Tilly series, I couldn't wait to see what Mike prepared for us. 

I could definitely see a difference in the writing style and the change of a genre to a thriller packed with action, fights and countless deaths. It felt like a Jack-Reacher-ish book with a loner Ben Koenig making everyone want to kill him and getting into all sorts of trouble to help his friend. 

The plot is as always smart, the twists unpredictable and even though there isn't a genius sidekick, Ben is quite clever himself! It's a fast-paced book and it's hard to take a break and get back to the normal life responsibilities, when all you want to do is to see what's going to happen in the next chapter. There aren't many authors whose writing is so addictive!

I can't image what type of research the book required and what is the author's browsing history! Especially with the crime that started Ben's journey, it made me wince and I'm glad I was by myself as I don't think I looked pretty reading about it! 

I don't want to write any hints nor spoilers about what's going on in Fearless but the idea for the title and the first book is a pure genius. 

The book hasn't been published yet and just like for the Poe & Tilly series, I'm waiting (im)patiently for the next story!
