Book Recommendation
Nov. 24th, 2003 11:35 amOrdinarily I would just add this to my book database for my website but I don't have the database set up for web access so I'm adding it here and I'll copy it into the database when I get home...
Risen, J.Knight Finished: 11/24/2003 Published: 2004
I got an advanced reading copy of this book from the author (thanks!). I could tell by the website (http://www.mindspring.com/~atombrain/risenintro.html) and the jacket info that this was not something I would ever pick out to read. But I am so grateful that I did not pass it by. The small town of Anderson is full of wonderful characters and ordinary people. But all of a sudden, people who died during the day, started coming back to life at midnight. I'm still not a fan of coming-back-from-the-dead fiction, but I have to say that J.Knight writes one hell of a story. Some of his side vignettes are so vivid and memorable that I have to stop and think if I'm remembering something that actually happened or if I read it in the book. When this comes out in January, treat yourself.
