After finishing Jacqueline E. Smith's last story, Between Worlds, I was intrigued to see what lay in the third installment. So after ending the second book, thirty seconds later, I picked up the ebook, After Death.
Not that I didn't already have the print version (signed by the author!), but the convenience outweighed my ability to safely carry the print book. For the last six weekends or so, I had been at the Texas Renaissance Festival near Houston, Texas, selling books of my own.
It was finished in about a week, slowed only by my inability to stop for more than five minutes at a time. This was very annoying as I kept wondering what was going to happen next.
Despite the delay, I finished it on the 24th of November. Here's my review:
This is not your typical ghost story. The adventure never stops.
Given tickets to a circus, Michael is completely unaware of why. Encouraged by his girlfriend, Kate, they are accompanied by their television star friend. In an effort to cheer Luke up, the three journey to what they think will be a nice vacation. They could never be more wrong.
The story rolls smoothly. The changes in action add well to the plot. You can feel the emotion as family members are united and friendships become more solid. We also see Michael, Luke, and Kate all grow as they define their place in the world.
But of course, there are always hiccups. For those, you’ll have to read the story to find out.
I did and loved it!
So at last, I come to the end and look forward to the next book in the series. Take the time if you haven't and read Cemetery Tours. You will be in for a grand adventure!
