When you read Reilly you do so knowing what to expect. Break neck speed and over the top stunts. And boy does he deliver. When he reach the pinnacle (for me it was Scarecrow) of what he could do with bad guys (bounty hunters) he decided to take a leaf out of Contest and viola The Great Zoo was born. Sadly, knowing what to expect means that you can almost predict whats going to happen and the dramatic pauses and build up are a dead give away to the next scene. Normally his plots are more robust and its difficult for the reader to figure out how to solve them but this book does not meet those standards. The layout of the Zoo and the drawings are still classic Reilly though and you will still probably stay up into the wee hours to finish it.
