| Why to Read: | The perfect introduction to its large world, this manuscript features a group of endearing characters who have their world rocked by the addition of a discordant member on their finely tuned team. The classic TV pilot set-up, this is the absolute best way to start the story and promises plenty of banter, conflict, and emotion as these characters encounter new and dangerous adventures in a countless number of sequels. There’s no end to the story possibilities, setting this up to be a successful long-running book or TV series. The post-Civil War setting provides a unique look at American history as well as plenty of drama by way of the racial tensions on the team. This is not just a traditional horror story, but something much deeper and more character-driven. Still, the tone and atmosphere are pitch perfect, the plot thrilling and perfectly paced, and the writing both gripping and insightful. A horror/thriller that you will not want to put down. |
