BROKEN ANGEL

by Sigmund Brouwer

Brouwer hooks his readers immediately with the mystery of Caitlyn’s birth. Although the lump on her back is easily recognized, you are left with the second mystery of how it came to be there. We are taken on a wild get-away before we have time to catch our breath.

Being dyslexic and strictly limited in my sequencing, I found it difficult to keep up with the twists and turns both in characters and topography. It was hard at first to sort out the bad guys and good guys.

The description of Appalachia is very sketchy and you learn its nature more by inference than by description. I came to the conclusion that Mr. Brouwer is as afraid of right wing fundamentalists as Republicans would be of left wing fanatics.

The book is a page turner, as much because you think surely he will clear up the twisted plot as your interest in whether Caitlyn will survive her journey.

More about the two civilizations in tomorrow’s post.
