In the debut novel This Game Has No Loyalty by June readers meet main character Junior a hustler and this is truly his coming of age story within the drug game. Under the wing of his cousin he learns the do’s and don’ts and combines with his ambition and motivation to not lose is what catapults this hustlers success on the criminal work ladder. Just like a classic Notorious BIG song more money definitely brings more problems and Junior finds himself fighting to keep that number one spot. A title often hard to keep since jealousy ,envy and greed are never too far behind when there is THE man out there making money,, This upsets  a lot of people and that is where friends will quickly become foes.
The Game Has No Loyalty tells a tale but the authors writing style makes the story realistic, yet unique but in this genre. As a reviewer I have read plenty of titles in this genre who compose the same recipe which in all actuality, is taking away from the industry and what June brings is refreshing. I will not categorize this novel because his main character was NOT just a hustler looking for the next come up.
There  are works in the genre currently offered by other authors that give offer you the painfully realism of the good, bad and ugly I felt from this book, but in my opinion these works are often offered by authors such as June and others that are often over looked or not given the proper attention they deserve.
Life lessons are within the pages of this novel and being as though this is part of a trilogy I am looking forward to see what happens next. Readers will enjoy this action filled crime drama, sounds like a movie right? Indeed, that is the must have component for a great read, one that has you able to visualize the authors words. Kudos to June!
