Starting from Bill and Jackson's second gambling adventure and running through their first meeting with the primary antagonist (whose identity is one of the best surprises of the novel), the story rarely slows down and is jam-packed with action and excitement. I’d rather discuss the effect of the plot, the characterization, the pacing—all the good and necessary stuff that goes into making a novel memorable, or not.
