"""Rodman is smart in constructing the plot so that the authorities do not intervene and correct Darwin's behaviour, but Darwin has to make a decision and change the direction of his own life...The subject matter would appeal to teenage boys who enjoy the action of fist-fighting and girls who would enjoy reading from the perspective of a misunderstood young man...Violence is the issue under discussion, and the story invites readers to compare the criminal behaviour of Darwin's fighting with the manipulative behaviour of the classmate who organizes the fight club...Recommended.""-- ""CM Magazine"" ""Rodman works the Orca Soundings criteria perfectly: well-developed characters and relationships, driving action, effective themes, in a brief, accessible format. Tap Out is a knock out!""-- ""Resource Links"""
