5.0 out of 5 stars truly spoken, December 4, 2009
This review is from: The Salvation of Billy Wayne Carter and Other Stories (Paperback)
I agree with the last review, except I would like to add that I think the novella "Salvation of BWC" could be turned into a full length book. Hope the author will consider it.

5.0 out of 5 stars Rock the Space/Time Continuum, December 1, 2009
This review is from: The Salvation of Billy Wayne Carter and Other Stories (Paperback)
"Salvation," a rockin' read, stands out for two reasons: it's thoughtful, and it's fun. What begins as a linear narrative, quickly spins off into several interconnected-sub-plots, and then morphs into over-lapping "all-time and possible realities are actually happening at once" dystopic realities of our, and the characters', futures. Follow Billy Wayne Carter as he spreads his rock 'n roll message, through his own eyes, and the eyes of several other characters. The stories are infused heavily with philosophy, and those prone to dwell mentally, or spiritually, upon the nature of reality itself will enjoy the examinations of truth-claims many have taken for granted for centuries. As if all that wasn't enough, there is a "sci-fi" twist packed into the zen/ rockabilly/ beyond thunderdome/ ken kesey/ heidegerrian vibe. What makes the book work is the comfortable, non-pretentious, writing, that floats easily across the page and keeps the seemingly disparate elements together.
