Product Description:
The home was top-notch New Jersey suburban.The living room was Martha Stewart.The basement was Legos—and blood.For sports agent Myron Bolitar, the disappearance of a man he'd once competed against was bringing back memories—of the sport he and Greg Downing had both played and the woman they both loved.Now, among the stars, the wanna-bes, the gamblers and groupies, Myron is unraveling the strange, violent life of a sports hero gone wrong, and coming face-to-face with a past he can't relive, and a present he may not survive.
In novels that crackle with wit and suspense, Edgar Award winner Harlan Coben has created one of the most fascinating and complex heroes in suspense fiction—Myron Bolitar—a hotheaded, tenderhearted sports agent who grows more and more engaging and unpredictable with each page-turning appearance.
From the Paperback edition.

Rating:  - Another adventure with Myron Bolitar's irreverent wit...
I've been on a bit of a recreational reading kick lately...probably trying to escape the stress of the economy.Anyway, my number finally came up at the library for the latest Myron Bolitar novel by Harlan Coben...Fade Away.It's been awhile since I've had the pleasure of reading Bolitar's irreverent dialog and his interaction with his partner Win Lockwood.And as always, it's a treat.

Rating:  - Enjoyable
This is the second of Coban's novels featuring Myron Bolitar that I've read and like all of his books I found it quite enjoyable. I enjoyed Promise Me a bit more but Coban held true to form with last minute twists that always bring surprise. I've yet to read one of Coban's novels that I wouldn't recommend to others.
Rating: - Still a timely story
Writing on anything connected to sports gambling is always timely - and "Fade Away" is a good example.Coben's underlying theme, whether intentional or not, centers around the timeless questions of freedom and responsibility. Coben is not only an entertaining writer, but knows how to blend reality and idealism - and everything in between.(Reviewed by Jerry Marcus, author of four novels - including Broken Trust - The Murder Of Basketball Star Jack Molinas.)
Rating:  - not my style
I am a fan of Harlan Coben but have never read this particular series.In contrast to the majority of reviews, I found this to be tedious rather than witty and in need of additional editing.Lame, forced dialog on top of a silly plot...even taking it for what it is, there are better ways to spend one's time.
Rating: - superb reprint
Ten years ago an injury ended his stint in the NBA without him playing one professional regular season game, but though Myron Bolitar has always thought of what could have been he uses self deprecating humor to move on and mope over what was lost to fate.He spent time as the most visible undercover FBI agent in the country (remember this is pre Plame days) before deciding to become a sports agent.
