Aaron Saylor

What a fun read this was! Two eleven-year-old boys, living in rural Appalachia in the 1980's, forge a friendship revolving around G.I. Joes, comic books and, most importantly, Fangoria Magazine. But things turn dark in the summer of 1986, when the two embark on a hunt for the legendary Boone Creek Banshee.

Saylor captures perfectly the speech patterns and pre-occupations of pre-adolescent boys living in this rural community. In addition, the tale is woven with humor as well as horror and Saylor intersperses pertinent social commentary throughout.

I understand from the book's description that this was just the first taste of a greater novel, ADVENTURES IN TERROR WITH JASPER BOHANON (one of the two boys) due out later this year and, I, for one, look forward to that novel with great anticipation. Highly Recommended.

Review:

"Sewerville" by Aaron Saylor was a good fiction read that hailed from Sewardville, Kentucky, a rural town where these 'rural crime Slones family' dwelled. This was quite a interesting group of people for they ran the town and seemed to be involved in a little bite of everything from ... 'drugs, violence, prostitution and gun smuggling.' We find from the read that it is of this family headed by Walt Slone(the mayor), his son (John) the sheriff, daughter (Karen) who kept the books and her husband (Boone). This was a read that you will have to pick up this read to get it all. Who in this family wanted out of all of this mess and why? Be ready for a read of plenty of violence and conflict. This author did a good job in the descriptions that were presented to the reader. "Sewerville" is definitely one read that keeps your interest until the last page with all of the twist and turns...you will not want to put it down. The characters were all well developed and very interesting as this story unfolded. "Sewerville" was simply a good crime mystery that took place in a small rural town and I would recommend this novel as a good read that left me saying Wow...that was some read!… (mehr)
