69 Inches of Steel offers the reader a refreshingly different side to the writing of Darrin Mason. Yes, Darrin can write in different style and he proves it here. For those who are familiar with his "Wicked Witch" series will be pleasantly surprised with the 69 Inches series. The question here is, how much of the author is in this tale? A very interesting passage in the book is extremity poignant in this train of though and would explain the connection to the seemly completely styles of  writing as the world of Jonathan, the main character of this series has no resemblance to the Wicked Witch, or is there? I'll let you decide, "Jonathon smiled again. “Yeah. And I guess our ability to create new ones comes down to whether or not we want to create them. After all, to create something from the ground up means playing God , you know? And it’s hard enough as it is to get people to believe"A thought-provoking read, especially if you have read other works by Darrin Mason as a deeper meaning begins to appear leaving an enigma shrouded with more questions than answers. And with that, makes it more entertaining, exploring the different facets of an incredibly gifted, albeit, somewhat twisted author. Imagine George Carlin and Phillip K Dick put into a blender and you'll get an idea of what awaits the reader.
