4.0 out of 5 stars An unique thriller, February 27, 2005
This review is from: Reunion at University Avenue (Paperback)
"Reunion at University Avenue" is an unique kind of thriller - a story that makes fun of campus politics even as it pulls the reader along for a ride through a realm where some take SG quite seriously. I enjoyed it, although it was clear this was a first novel. Below is some info about the book from another website:

SYNOPSIS
Mike Adams used to think campus politics was funny, until someone wanted him dead. On the eve of his 20 year high school reunion, Mike has written a self-referential parody of college-level Student Government. But not everyone likes what they read. Now, production on a movie has brought Mike back in touch with his past. As accidents escalate and eerie messages are left behind, it's clear someone wants to stop his movie. But who? And why? Does this have anything to do with the campus secret society he fought and made fun of? In order to identify his antagonist and save the movie, Mike must reach into his past, identify fact from fiction, and confront his most unlikely foe...

ACCREDITATION
Ken is very much like Mike Adams - a veteran of campus politics that isn't afraid to speak the humorous and honest truth about SG - the benefits and stereotypes of being involved. By day, Ken is a pension processor for the nation's coal miners. He also has a master's degree in political management from George Washington University. He lives in Alexandria, Virginia.

4.0 out of 5 stars Compelling Story!, February 27, 2005
This review is from: Reunion at University Avenue (Paperback)
Kenneth Kerns managed to pull off a very strong debut novel in "Reunion at University Avenue." The character of Mike Adams is compelling, as is the story he weaves.

Although the novel has its cliches (including a flirtatious and sexy blonde who seems to fall for Mike and becomes a suspect in the attacks), the story is a solid romp through a world where student government is taken with dead seriousness.

The backdrop of adventure, entwined with excerpts from Mike's best-selling novel to provide backstory, is a solid read and I highly recommend it. The only other real problem with the work is editing errors (a lot of accidental movement to present tense from past), but since this was self-published, I'm not holding that against Kerns.

Looking forward to more this from this author!
