The Man in Black by L.R. Liverpool – Review by Amanda Glaspie
The Man In Black by L.R. Liverpool
My rating: 4 of 5 stars
This is a an adventurous book that will keep you constantly on the edge of your seat, once you get through the first few chapters. It was a slow start and I had a hard time connecting with Fenimore, aka, Simon Shaw. However, after the first few chapters, I really felt a connection with him. There is a lot going on within the book between Simon’s “coming of age”, budding romances, a mystery man, and murders, there is something to appeal for everyone in this book.
As the book progressed I found myself loving characters I hated and hating characters I loved. The character development was very strong. You really got to know many of the members in the gang and their background. For example, Ford had has a unique and volatile personality. Early on in the book, you learn his history and his characteristics make sense. I ultimately really enjoyed all the twists and turns and absolute surprises.
