Akin Oshodi –
“Oilmetrics is a classic.”
Without apologies, unequivocally, M. Aboyade – Cole is firmly in realm of modern writers of fiction, of paperback novels, that are universally readable. Oilmetrics is a sweet read.
Clearly written with insights into the roots and working of the tensions that drives players in the world of banking it speaks to the nuances that underlies the motivation behind the individual’s search for wealth, power, recognition and the road to the psychosis that results from the obsession to achieve status.
Yet, “Oilmetrics” retains that elegant quality of being “a good story” readable on many levels by a wide range of readers from the young to the savvy. That is the true beauty of this novel.
It can be read by an audience that is diverse in age and exposure with being able to relate at their level, with all finding it fascinating in the light of their level of comprehension and if I remember correctly, that’s the definition of a classic.
“Oilmetrics – a thoroughly good read!!”

An exhilaratingly brainy thriller. I couldn’t stop until the end and then a cliffhanger…..
P.S: rated 4 stars because I need to know what happened next? A sequel perhaps…..
