Review: At the Mercy of the Story
Rating: 5 out of 5

Kucan's writing moves like a fighter: dancing... bobbing... weaving... then--POW--knocking you to the ground.Through skillful characterizations and rich, sensory details, we come to know Zack's neighborhood and everyone in it--from the swaggering Deputy to Patchwork Makhi in his big, Muppet-colored coat.Zack has a superhuman skill set and a super-human heart. His deep thoughts and feelings hide somewhere behind his tough exterior where only the reader can see.Two chapters in, and the story seems to just get better.  Looking forward to more.
