Part of one of the illustrations I’m doing as part of a weekly series you can see the entirely of over on The Log Whisperer at Old Log Houses by Thomas’ Facebook page.

Angel’s Cove by Allan Pedrazad

My rating: 2 of 5 stars

The formula method bleeds through this a bit too obviously. What helps that is the main character who is only sketched out. I left this book not sure who the main character really is. The other characters seemed drawn from a mystery clipart book. There are a few interesting characters, but the author never fleshes out anyone enough to really care about them or what happens to them. One of the better characters is taken out before half way through. I kept hoping that character would be resurrected anytime during the book to give more dimension to the story. The saddest part is the ending that is severely lacking. There is some very good writing. Some asides are very inspired, even though I don’t agree with the politics included. It seems the writer is good at putting editorial writing in place but not, in this case, a good story.
