Review of JTs World
E. Alan Fleischauer is the author of JT's World. The narrative was set in the untamed West, where the grass was sparse, guns were needed for survival, and horses served as the main mode of transportation. The book's primary character is John Thurgwood Thomas (JT Thomas). The book described his exploits. These exploits followed the gruesome murders during the opening of his new business. JT's ranch foreman announced his intention to purchase cows, and JT was pressured to join him by his stepdaughter. She assured him that she would see to it that the project he will leave behind runs smoothly. Throughout this journey, JT encountered a lot. He could not have predicted the dangerous situations he encountered on this journey. But will he survive?
The book's title didn't particularly pique my interest. However, I love this book as a stand-alone even though I haven't read the other volumes in the series. The author wrote with a degree of proficiency. Hence, the tale was engrossing. It had a nice flow to it and a little funny relief. The characters were completely realized and well-rounded. Hence, they were believable and sympathetic. For instance, Jessica was portrayed as a beautiful, brave, and kind woman. She continued to uphold that throughout the novel, even when she came across some unfriendly patients. The author's sporadic storyline surprised me till the very end.
The author also used vivid imagery. This aided my comprehension of the book and increased my level of interest. Also, he held his own opinions and didn't hesitate to voice them. This highlighted the book's originality. Also, I liked how the book's beginning was brief and to the point. I love books with these kinds of elements rather than ones that drag out the opening pages. Good and evil were clearly distinguished throughout the text. Each character was either genuinely virtuous or irrationally evil.
I occasionally became confused while reading this novel, especially when the names were involved. For example, Billy was sometimes referred to as Burnett. In light of the many characters in this novel, I think that it would have been nicer if the author had used one of their names or both to identify the characters throughout. I don't have any other problems with this book save this one. For me, reading this book was a terrific experience.
Because of the aforementioned reasons, I rate this book 5 out of 5 stars. I did not encounter errors while reading this book. Hence, it was professionally well-edited.
I recommend this book to readers who enjoy Western. It will also fascinate people who are interested in thrilling adventures and culture. If you have a sensitivity to coarse language and graphic violence, you might want to read another book.
