    Of every book on the shelves these days, Jacked portrays a world most closely a mirror of the real, and has a hero which most resembles the reader. The questions it raises Is Esteem a more fundamental need than Safety?

    The weakest of the series to date. Still a strong book, but for the first time, the gross comedic inner-dialogue felt forced.   Read Full Review
