I loved all the local references, the minor hoodlums, the very recognizable mayor, the parades, the transsexuals, the semis hauling cattle and pigs, the R&B DJs, the fight over light rail. BUT would I read it if it weren't all Denver and Colorado? I don't know. The hometown appeal is very strong, but I'm not sure it would translate to another audience. I never did connect with CJ. Too complicated a character, too much unnecessary bakstory? I dunno. I'll have to read more.
