Review: A Western Novel at Heart
Rating: 4 out of 5
Date: 07 10, 2014
I enjoyed the story and agree with another reader it is similar to a western novel in many ways. The author's writing gets better as towards the end. The plot had interesting twists and the characters felt believable. Some of the drama was really fresh feeling and other scenes were predictable and action and dialogue felt like a "Gun Smoke" episode.The setting of the story is on planet during a revolution or at least civil unrest. The local authorities are handling the bulk of the police work and the imperials investigating are mostly spy types. The hero is a navy guy thrown into the conflict when his shuttle is disabled.I almost never buy an unknown author with a $9.99 book price, but it was my birthday. Compared to similar genre books at $2.99, its over priced for the quality. No regrets in purchasing the novel; but, doubt I'd purchase another of his books at this price point.
