Breakneck Reviews

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
