Is it my kind playing tricks, or has he done some really decent plastic surgery? Guy looks ****ing awesome. Compare this photo with the one he had on under the dome... Day and night

I don't think he has had Plastic surgery - he just looks really good for his age. To me the best part of the picture is the obvious intelligence shining out of his eyes - to me that is most attractive (and I am sure Tabby feels the same!) :semi-twins:

His bright gunslinger eyes spook me and remind me of The Road Virus Heads North

When I look at the cover photos in his books, I always feel like he is looking into me.

Started The Troop by Nick Cutter. About two thirds in. Not really original at all. Clearly recognizable influences from some books and writers, King among them, but it is a good read. Not a great read but a good read.
YES! I was just coming here to say pretty much the same thing. It's okay--nothing special. One thing that surprised me: editor missed a pretty big name error. A character's name was changed mid sentence :) It was Johnnie at the beginning of the sentence, but changed to Timmy by the end and was Timmy for the rest of the paragraph. Writer clearly changed his mind about the name, but missed one reference. Normally I don't catch stuff like that when I'm reading (editing, yes, but not reading for enjoyment), but that one was glaring--I had to go back and make sure I didn't miss something.

Missed the name error. Still thinks it beats Scott Smiths the Ruins. I was slightly irritated by that one. Have heard that Smiths other book is better but haven't read it.
