Remo Cobb was down on his luck before, but not like this.In the blink of an eye his flashy life of being a big money, heavy drinking, pill popping attorney came to a screeching halt. After being fired from the highfalutin law firm following a violent altercation, his days of wheeling and dealing for the accused are over. Now, all he wants to do is pick up the shattered remains of his life and … remains of his life and spend some time getting to know his son, but the law isn’t ready to let him go.
Not yet.
One huge favor could mean the difference between moving on or getting used to living under law enforcement’s thumb. It’s either team up with a band of unlikely cohorts to take down a powerful former client or go directly to jail.
The renowned Remo Cobb may have finally met his match, but he’s not ready to go down. Not without a fight.
Remo Went Down is the second book in the Remo Cobb series picking up right where the fast-paced, pulp fun of Remo Went Rogue left off.

Relentless – I was clueless about the storyline, so I really didn’t want to read Relentless after I read the first couple of chapters. I don’t care about LA, designer clothes and fancy cars; you got em, great but so what. But I’ve read a few books by Mr. McCrary and love his work, so I hung in there. Glad I did because the pace picked up, the plot turned intriguing and suspenseful, and the characters ranged the gamut from weak to pure evil, with plenty of manipulation from several directions. I figured out a few things, except one thing: what was actually wanted in the end by the bad guy. I want to say more, but I don’t do spoilers; this is a review, not a book report. Another well written, well thought out story. 5*
Getting Ugly – Action packed, fast paced suspense with interesting characters. The plot kept me immersed in the story. Ugly is a fun, good character. Well written, but vulgar language happy.
Steady Trouble #1 – Action packed, fast paced with an interesting plot and characters. Of the three books, I’ve read, this is the best, with Getting Ugly second (fun, good character). Cowtown, yes; A-Town?, must be near NYC or Chi-Town. Standalone, but there’s definitely more in the future. Well written with believable characters and plot. Do want to see more of Teddy. This book is different from the Remo series, but just as enjoyable.
Steady Madness #2 – Picks up where Steady Teddy ended. Another well written, action-packed, suspense filled book. The characters from Steady Teddy #1 have growth and you either love em or hate em. You’re definitely rooting for the good guys even when they’re bad. Even the new additions are interesting. There’s a surprise at the end of the story that’s heartwarming, actually a couple of em. I had to laugh when I saw BAD WORDS INC. on the title page, since Mr. McCrary is always reviewed for his vulgar language. He has a sense of humor as you can see in his books. I volunteered to review his books many books ago. He is one of my favorite new authors.
Remo Went Rogue #1 – Action packed, fast paced suspense with a cast of characters typical of this type of novel. Cut n Shoot ain’t that little any more. Well written, but too much vulgar language, although that’s typical for these characters. If you like Elmore, you’ll like this book.
Remo Went Down #2 – Great! Another action packed, fast paced thriller full of suspense, characters that keep getting better and a twisting plot. Better than Rogue, still with the vulgar and the violence works. I couldn’t put the book down, it wouldn’t let me until I finished. Do read Rogue first, and then hang on for the ride with Down.
Remo Went Wild #3 – I couldn’t stop belly laughing or put the book down. The descriptions are just poetry, vivid. Remo 3 is the best of the lot, so far. Well written, intense, suspense filled, with humor over the top. Mr. McCrary has a good thing going here with Remo. It seems he’s cut the vulgar language some, but what’s there, just belongs – these are real thugs who haven’t been to church in awhile, if ever. LOL. (Since in the Amazon reviewing community, non Christians and real people curse.)
The characters are getting stronger with each book and the plot still remains twisting and engaging. Any more folks, and we’re talking spoilers. I’ll let you discover the adventure on your own. With over 50K books in my possession, not counting the local library, I don’t reread many books. When Remo Went Berserk comes out, I’ll be rereading the first three just to get into the mood to savor Berserk. McCrary goes on my bookshelf with Ludlum, my favorite author.
Remo Went Off #4 – Wow, Remo’s story comes to a close – maybe? This book is just as action packed, fast paced and intriguing as the previous volumes. Well written plot; realistic characters; realistic and appropriate dialog; just the items that make a good story.
You must read these books in order to get the most out of this series. But if you can’t, don’t let it stop you from reading this or any other book. Once you get started, you’ll have a difficult time putting these books down. Some folks will get offended by the vulgar language, which ranges in frequency usage thorough out the books, but the characters are criminals and this is their norm. I contacted the author to review his books.
A follow-up to Remo Went Rogue. Laughed so much with the first book, couldn’t wait to read the second book! Didn’t disappoint. Remo grows as a character in this book, and it adds depth to his story. Still a constant laugh and worth the time to continue in this series. Book three next…..
