Ezekiel Grey: burnt-out bounty hunter with a no-nonsense, take no chances attitude. Ash Calibre: private investigator, and cynical sociopath with a cocaine habit. Vincent Cross: volatile, rogue cop out to settle a score. What connection do these individuals share with a notorious, well organized militia, poised to take over the Gulf Coast? Find out in this gritty, action packed debut from E. Faison. But be warned: when these worlds collide, blood will be shed...by the gallon. In a captivating, original story that spans 8 cities, 4 states, and 2 countries, author E. Faison takes you on a ‘hell of a ride’, and doesn’t let up until the final, bullet-riddled page. Murder, Revenge, Corruption, Honor, Justice, Sex, Drugs, and yes, Rock and Roll. This dark thriller is filled with that and more. Not only is it a story with several mind bending twists, it’s also a mind bending twisted story. So lock and load, its BULLETTIME!

"Almost perfect"
I bought this book on another website, but was asked to leave feedback on this site, so here's my opinion:
Story: 6/6
Originality: 5/6
Characters: 6/6
Length: 5/6
Re-read value: 6/6
Overall Quality: 5/6
Price (paperback): 5/6, (download): 6/6
Ability to keep your attention: 6/6
I agree with the other reviewers regarding how good of a book it is, but I cannot give it the full 6/6 stars, due to the few issues above. Granted, the book is good enough to make you forget the few flaws, (surprisingly good, in fact) but I felt that it could have been a tad longer, and the paperback price is a little high. The irony is, the download price seems low for this book. ($13 paperback, and $8 Download would be perfect, in my opinion.) Still, it was one of the best books I've read in a long time. And when it comes to books, movies, music, and games, I am hard to please. 5/6

"Nailed it"
I couldn't put Bullettime down. It had me from the first page till the last one. It tells an original story with familiar elements. I enjoyed the plot twists, and the different characters. I also enjoyed the graphic violence. (The casino shootout being my personal favorite)The various cities, and different locations were detailed, either the author actually visited these places, or he really did his research. I really can't say anything negative about this book. I took a chance buying it, not being familiar with the author. But after reading his myspace page, I found out more about E. Faison and Bullettime. He is a new author and this is his first book. Well he nailed it the first time out. Beginner's luck maybe. Or maybe it's skill. Whatever it is, I really think this author will be big, and this book has the potential to be a top seller. I can also see Bullettime as a movie. I also be on the look out for future titles from this new author.
"Wow!!"
This book was a lot better than I expected. I loved it!! Chapter 2 was by far the best, but the story as a whole was excellent! I could tell the author is very detail oriented, and wanted the reader to 'see' what his characters see. From details like the bruises on a woman's nether-regions after a night of apparent rough sex, to the color of someones brain matter as it gets splattered across a wall from a high caliber bullet. My favorite part? Ash Calibre wakes up from a drunken, drug induced slumber to see a naked woman on his bed "Nice ass" he tells her. She says "Yeah you told me that last night while your tongue was in it" I almost dropped the book from laughing so hard at that,... More >

"Better than I was expecting"
Hilarious too. Sequel coming out next year? Count me in. You've got yourself a loyal reader, E. Faison. You should give Ash Calibre a Gallardo next time though. (A lot cooler than the R8!)
"Six Stars!"
I'd give it ten stars if I could. Ok, so its not super long. If you want to spend the next yeat reading one book, read War and Peace. The thing about BulletTime is that it gets to the point. Sure there's back story and character building, but E. Faison didn't spend a ridiculous amount of time focusing on unnecessary story telling elements. He brings you into each character's world, tells you why they are who they are, gives you their current situation, brings the conflict, climax, and closure. There are no boring, lengthy explanations that waste time. He gives you just enough to develop a connection, and builds from there. I read the book in about a week, and I really loved it.... More >
