Having already gone through the Locker Nine series and most of the Mad Mick’s, I started this knowing that I wanted to know more about Jim Powell before he and Mick meet to tangle in “Ultraviolent”. Of course, knowing Kevin Pierce would be narrating added to the allure, because I love the way he reads. Was not disappointed in the least. Jim Powell is a “character” in all the best meanings of the word… knowledgeable, smart enough to see what’s coming and actively plan for his family’s safety and future, smart mouthed and a straight shooter as well as courageous! He got stuck far from home with some co-workers. Now he’s doing whatever it takes to get home.
