"The 221 bus plodded along at a stuttering pace with a succession of flicking streetlights lighting its way. The driver, a chunky man in his twilight years, watched his passengers through the rear-view mirror with an expression of bewilderment permanently embedded on his wrinkled face." Great writing like this makes for an interesting book. I like the dark tone and gritty descriptions... "He had been around death enough to recognize the presence of impending doom that hangs in the air like a weighted inevitability." The back and fourth of the dialogue is also well paced, and the subtle black humor keeps this book interesting. If you like Gothic or noire, then  you'll like Forever After.
