The Book Dragon has read Corinna Turner's page-turning novella
Three Last Things: or The Hounding of Carl Jarrold, Soulless Assassin and gives it five claws!
My review: I've chosen to review this story by one of my favorite authors today because it's my birthday(!) and because this story is so special and unforgettable. It's difficult to explain why this story affected me so much without giving away spoilers, but I'm going to try! This is unlike any story I've read before. It was far out of my comfort zone (taking place inside a prison) and yet I could NOT put it down. The realistic and suspenseful situation the author has created shows the power of love and loudly shouts the truth of the Latin phrase "dum spiro, spero" ("While I breathe, I hope"). So don't let the first person POV of a hardened murderer make you wonder if you should read this story--your life will be better for reading it!!!!!
