Review of JTs World
JT's World, written by E. Alan Fleischauer, revolves around the owner of a theme park, John Thurgood Thomas.
On the grand opening of the theme park, someone is murdered with a bowling pin, and that leaves the question of who did it. JT Thomas would go on to witness two more murders, which would force him to go on a vacation to clear his mind. On his journey, JT rescues a man who is a bounty hunter, and together they embark on several adventures and unravel mysteries. We also get to see some love triangles between the characters; JT's life revolves around two women, Annabelle and Jessica. After Anabelle's death, JT meets Jessica, and that would be what one would deem "love at first sight," and together they'd figure out what lies ahead of them and this new-found relationship.
I enjoyed the author's versatility with different themes, as he was able to tell a story and creatively incorporate the themes of murder mystery, western culture, and romance into his book. The author's ability to allow these three themes to co-exist in the same book is one I would praise. I've always been intrigued with western culture, and the author, with his distinctive selection of words, was able to allow me to paint a picture with my imagination, as if I were inside the book and all the action was happening right in front of me. My favorite character is Chip Heller; I loved his sharp instincts and his ability to track people down.
Although this book might have told an excellent story, there are a few things I didn't like. At first, the book started at a fast pace with all the murders and flashbacks, but as I read on, the tempo slowed down. The urge in me to unravel the murder mysteries had died down. It got to a point where it was all about love interests and romance that I almost forgot about the bounty hunting. I also didn't like too much information given on murders; I felt the words chosen by the author were too graphic as I read and imagined.
I would rate this book 5 out of 5 stars, though there are a few things I hate about it that wouldn't be enough to deprive this piece of creativity of a star. There are definitely no errors in this book; it has been edited perfectly. Due to the different themes of the book, the audience is not just limited to a certain group of people. I would recommend this book for those who love romance, those who enjoy western culture-themed books, as well as murder mysteries and bounty hunting. That's the audience I'm calling on to read this book.
