"The Fishers"  is a short introductory novella by author Erik Gustafson. This Kindle e-book was a minuscule 24 Kb download and was free at the time of writing this review. It appears an additional novel is coming as a follow-up/continuation of this almost prologue-like work.SPOILERSA normal joyful father and son fishing trip turns out to be a much more than either had expected. Something lurks in the quiet pond that this unfortunate pair have chosen to try their casting skills.END SPOILERSSome thoughts...1.) an intriguing story, well written2.) some beautiful descriptive passages of the quiet bucolic terrain... indicative of skills that made me feel that the author was capable of producing a highly entertaining book.3.) equally impressive was the tension and fear that was expressed once the idyllic situation turned for the worst.4.) cliffhanger ending... just enough info to make the reader want to find out more in the next book.Conclusion:A very well done introductory work that is used to set up a longer story to follow soon.A story told with enough quality to make me want to check out the follow up.If this short work is any indication, then this author appears to have some talent.As it is... 5 StarsRay Nicholson
