I was a bit in love with Ed Kennedy while I was listening to this book. Also Marc Aden Gray lovely aussie accent was totally enough to make me swoon. Seriously though, Ed Kennedy is basically a worthless, deadbeat, 20 year old, cab driver whose life is circling the drain. The only thing he has going for him is his fabulous coffee-drinking dog, The Doorman. Even The Doorman has a serious odor issue that makes him difficult to live with. After Ed foils a bank robbery he begins receiving playing cards in the mail. These direct him to help other people or touch their lives in some way. Surprisingly one of the things that I liked about this book was graphic violence. Why is violence always worse listening to an audio book than reading it yourself in black and white? Sometimes to help you have to hurt.
