More great Concrete stories to make you think,
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Concrete: Short Stories 1990-1995 (Paperback)
This group of stories is just as enjoyable as the first, even bringing back some characters originally featured in the 1986-1989 volume.
The plots range from suspense, to environmental concern, to Concrete's celebrity status being taken advantage of by the same family that tricked him into appearing at a child's birthday party in a 1986 story. Chadwick inserts himself into Concrete's universe in a tale where he arrives as a "Creator" figure, who grants Concrete his heart's desire before removing his memory of the incident so that he can get back to his normal life. Very surreal. One of the stories from the 1986-1989 volume is actually re-printed in its entirety, but its a classic tale of the ingenuity of the elderly in dangerous situations-so it was nice to read it again. A final bonus is the addition of a Concrete Timeline, that gives a brief synopsis of Concrete's adventures both in the continuing series and short stories from 1985-1995. It makes me excited to start reading the graphic novels next! |
