This review is from: The Final Shortcut (Paperback)
So many books take multiple chapters to even become remotely interesting, but I was hooked on Ray's novel by
the end of the first paragraph. The story continues to deliver by being
extremely well developed and thought out. There is enough character
development that i had no trouble picturing the characters and the
scenery with perfect clarity. At the same time, Ray doesnt waste your
time describing mundane, useless information that makes you want to wait
for the movie. The book simply STAYS interesting in that classic "can't
put it down" quality. The story is unbelievably believable, and makes
you think this could really happen. One pet peeve of mine with horror
stories and "slashers" is the gratuity with which slayings are handed
out, and the lack of rationale and motive behind the mayhem. The
character "Junior" is so well developed that you actually empathize with
him. In fact, I found myself agreeing with him and justifying his
actions....at times. I'm very impressed with Ray's story-telling
ability. The story flows smoothly, is interesting, captivating,
pleasantly demented, and a lot of fun. I can't wait to see if Junior
comes back for round two.
