Drummond, has grown to be a favorite author of mine. I first received recommendation to buy one of his works via the website Twitter.
In Escaping The Rain, which is a Novelette. We are introduced to the character Nick Aldo. He is a funny and sarcastic character with a darker tone. The writing is witty, punchy, and at sometimes downright raunchy. Nick Aldo holds no punches as he draws you into his world.
Nick Aldo is a man fighting many demons himself. You quickly learn why it is he acts the way he does. I went from thinking he was a heartless (*censored for your eyes*) to actually feeling sorry for him.
This is a quick read, perfect for a plane trip, bus ride, or just late night read. Drummond mentioned that this is the first of a series of works from this character. I eagerly await the next dosage. At $0.99 it's well worth the price tag. I would have definitely paid $5 for the quality plot alone. Although the author lays it right out in your face, the way he skillfully plays with words, I guarantee you will miss it as well. Completely unexpected without using magic or trickery.
Add this writing to your MUST READ list now. If you are a Jeremy Drummond fan, or have never read his writings before, you will not be disappointed.
