Review of JTs World
[Following is a volunteer review of "JTs World" by E. Alan Fleischauer.]
JT’s World by E. Alan Fleischauer is a book about the eventful lives of cowboys and is the fifth book in the series. Just outside of Scottsdale, Arizona, you'll find the newest attraction, JT's World, complete with rides, shops, a Ferris wheel, and a theater. When Mika Shipley was murdered at the grand opening, it set off a chain reaction that ultimately claimed the lives of two more people. JT Thomas and his ward, Madeline, decided to retreat to his ranch, the Ponderosa. Following these murders, he and Madeline separated, with him going to Colorado to round up cattle for his ranch while she stayed at JT's World. JT had a lot of trouble following him and became tangled up with some ladies while they were collecting his new cattle. But will JT be able to move on from his beloved Annabelle?
This author has not let me down yet with any of his works that I have read. He has an excellent writing style, and I find his descriptions to be particularly striking. His writing is sure to keep his readers on the edge of their seats and is never dull. The author successfully captivates the reader into his world. Many disturbing topics, including but not limited to violence, pedophilia, rape, homosexuality, and kidnapping, are alluded to but not described at length in this book. Many of the female characters in JT's world are able to pursue their own interests and even run their own businesses, something that is hardly ever seen in these times.
The negative aspect of the book is that there is a lot of violence and murders in it and that it is detailed.
The positive aspects were that the protagonist, JT, treats women with such respect is one of the many reasons why I enjoy the story so much. He's not selfish or materialistic, and he's always there to lend a hand to those in need. The book was enjoyable to read because of the author's lovely descriptive prose. As an added bonus, I appreciate that the book's rape and pedophilia are not explained at length.
I rate this book 4 out of 4 stars mostly because I respect the protagonist's humbleness. What I liked most about the story is that it takes place in the late 1800s, when there was no such thing as advanced technology, and that it is about cowboys. You never know where the book is going to end up, you're always left wondering what's going to happen next, and there's always a twist around the corner. It was an exciting read that I found difficult to put down. Though I did spot a few mistakes, I think the book has been professionally edited.
I recommend this book to readers who like their cowboy stories with lots of bloodshed and action. You'll enjoy this book if you're a fan of the 18th-century era and of stories in which women play central roles. Nothing negative is said about homosexuality, and it is accepted in the book.
