The book:
Today we shall be discussing a book that I just picked up for the shocking price of free. The title of said book is Casting Shadows Everywhere by Tim McBrains & L.T. Vargus. This story is about a 15 year old boy named Jake. Basically picture the narrator from fight club but with a much more squeaky voice. Then add a thousand pop culture references. And you have casting shadows everywhere.
Synopsis:
The plot it was wonderfully unique Jake, the narrator from five club, takes lessons in many illegal things from the local crook nick, who happens to be similar to Tyler Durden. I assumed this is a coincidence, but as the philosophical musings of our narrator would fit in any chuck Palahniuk book. I spent most of the time reading attempting to decide what the actual main plot was. I decided it was either the standard can't get the girl plot line or the how far wil he fall plot line. These two ideas raged on inside my head for most of the second half as a book. And sadly I never quite figured that out.
Rating:
Beginning: 5/5
Middle: 4/5
End: 3/5
It is an enjoyable read for the price. It had a multiple laugh out moments.
This blog is a collection of the rants, musings, and philosophy of the fantasy writer John Kennebrew. You'll laugh, cry, and maybe try to burn down my house when read what I have to say about writing, life, and television.
