The story moves quickly and what's nice is he gives you a cast of characters in the beginning of the book, Make sure you bookmark that page for those with capabilities, Some eReaders don't do this, I had to go back a couple of times to understand what each level of the gang activity meant, Once I got the hang of the characters and who they represented to each gang, it was on and crackin', while I munched on popcorn gettin' ready to kick ass and take names! The reader will most definitely, without a doubt, feel the pain! Ooooh yes indeedy! My adrenaline was on! What an incredible high!

At what point does justice become revenge Against the backdrop of New York Citys Chinatown, THE MEN MADE OF STONE follows two young men as they ascend the ranks of the citys criminal gangland and, in the process, discover that everyone has a different answer to that question.


One man, known only as C, with a pistol and penchant for violence, turns a small street gang into a formidable underworld player.
With the likes of Danny the Priest, who kills

with impunity, but never on a Sunday, and the equally violent Trigger, C seeks freedom from the tongs, the criminal syndicates that control the street gangs.


The other man is Jack, an ambitious new tong associate who also rises to a position of power, On opposite sides of the battle for control of Chinatown, it seems inevitable that the two mens destinies will collide,

But nothing in Chinatown is ever as it seems,

The two share a secret that has led them on their paths, and when C meets the lovely and mysterious Sarah, and Jack reunites with his childhood sweetheart, Rachael, they learn that some choices come with unexpected consequences.
As the violence escalates, the two men struggle to find their footing, until one death changes everything for them,

While THE MEN MADE OF STONE is an oldfashioned story of two victims struggling for justice, its also a taut crime thriller, blending fiction with the truegrit vérité of the citys underbelly.


Just as The Godfather introduced an Englishspeaking audience into Italian terms like caporegime and the Cosa Nostra, this organizedcrime pageturner will acquaint modern readers with the Chinese dailow and the Vietnamese anhhai.
Balanced by universal themes of love, friendship, and duty, THE MEN MADE OF STONE exposes the sordid, yet fascinating, world of AsianAmerican street gangs and the power brokers who pull their strings.
From my Amazon review:

I enjoy Logan's writing on his blog, but this book is a whole different animal, It's a gritty read about New York City's Chinatown in thes,

I've read some other reviews that say this book is profanity laden true, but it's realistic if anything I'd expect more swearing in conversations with gangsters.


Don't be fooled by the low price tag, the quality of writing is very professional, and the plotline exciting enough that I found myself hoping that Men Made of Stone will be turned into a movie.


Can't wait for the sequel, make it happen Logan! Not quite sure what to make of this little book, I downloaded it for free Thanks Logan! and read it on my smartphone, That probably altered my experience of it, Anyhow, I did read it pretty fast as I wanted to know what happened to the characters, . . although I can't say that I could relate to any of them on a personal level, They just did not seem like real people, Seems more like a movie than a novel in that regard, Don't know why people always write about themselves in third person "Logan is a native New Yorker and lives with his wife and a plant named Harold.
" Yet they do.

The truth is that I actually am a native New Yorker and I do live with my wife and a plant named Harold.
And professionally, I'm an intellectual property attorney and a commercial real estate appraiser,

But there's this saying that we are what we constantly do, If that's the case, first and foremost, I'm a collector and teller of stories, The technology of expression and consumption may change, but in the end, it's still the basic need to tell and be told a good story.


So, let me tell you one,
