Caine’s Law

The pinnacle of Caine

Would you consider the audio edition of Caine’s Law to be better than the print version?

Not really, but Rudniki does phenomenal

What other book might you compare Caine’s Law to and why?

Caine's Law is so much unlike anything I've ever read, even Stover's other stuff.

Have you listened to any of Stefan Rudnicki’s other performances before? How does this one compare?

Yes. He delivers stellar voice acting consistently

Was there a moment in the book that particularly moved you?

Oh yes. There wasn't many pages where I didn't go "HOLY COW!" but Caine's speech to the BOG is really good. Also, the Mockingbird question.

intense, harsh and reality bender

Did you listen to Hero's Die? Blade of Tyshaelle? Perhaps Caine Black Knife? Well you better do that before listening to this one. Caine is back and he is crafting a new future by rewriting the past, his past and the past of the universe... both of them. Harsh, gritty, profound and violent. Fans of Stover will not be disappointed.

As good as the first one

Caine is back in action. Combining "memories" of his brutal career start with no less brutal current adventure, he spins so great a yarn you'll never notice the passage of time. And when you get to an -- admittedly cliffhanger-y -- ending, you won't mind, you'll yearn for more.

It ends

What an ending. This must be read/listened to immediately after book 3. Thanks for the story.

Interesting and unique

This book was the perfect mix of sci-fi, fantasy and dystopian worlds. I loved the series and this book is the perfect ending.

Great book, a tad confusing

Took me awhile to get through the book, was worth it in the end, though I probably need to read again as it's somewhat confusing.

Very Strong

I've listened to all of the Caine books and really enjoyed them. This one proves Stover's imagination is far from tapped out. The guy keeps taking things to new and interesting levels. I guess that's what makes great authors truly great, which he is. I'm not sure if it's because I read this one most recently, but it definitely struck me as more philosophical and dialogue heavy than the first, but it's all so great that I mention it as a positive. Still more than enough action, which is an f-ing ton. It's just a little smarter than before. The other good thing to know is that it lacks some of the depressive coloring of the last book. It still contains a great spectrum of emotion, but this book is more like the first two in its level of kickass.

I Don't Give 5 Stars Often, But WOW

I wrote a review after 'Hero's Die' about al l the books up to 'Acts of Caine II' & this is to reinforce the absolute MAD, self-Deprecating, & absolute breakdown of multiple worlds/realities because of one man, or one actor, whichever u want to use, but in the end whether Caine does it for his fans or himself or those he loves or a little of all of it plus vengeance on those that tried to hurt the peeps he cared for; the closest thing I can compare this ride of novels is similar to a person getting ready to wage Jihad for his purposes & is not afraid to Martyr himself or anyone not lucky enuff for him to care about while on this trek to oblivion.

U have to have the stomach & ability to hear gratuitous bad language to the point where even I am scratching my head & asking whoa, what is the funniest yet most vulgar thing I've heard... yet in the next novel Stover will present Theology & philosophy that will make u think I just might use those words if I was trapped or forced into this situation... Now this is how the million $$ actors we pay should have to live... in fear of death to make that much money lol, if a football player can possibly get post-concussion syndrome from playing from the sheer brutality the take on actors in the future is so clever it leaves me wanting more, which supposedly there will be... if u read one of the books u need to read all of them, if u like one, than u will love all... if u hate the vulgarity & violence don't waste the credit... I personally love the beauty in classic books along with the beauty presented in these books, just served with a side order of disembowelment to go with it LOL

If u are reading this book without reading the past ones I'm not sure if that will work nor will it paint the picture of what Caine is & what he has gone thru... if ur interested, get the books, read them all & wait for the next installment like me because he's the most dedicated METHOD ACTOR I've ever heard of LMAO
