ELECTRICITY reviewed

I mentioned this in the twitter feed last week but, for those of you who missed it, the redoubtable DL Owens recently reviewed Electricity.

Myke Bartlett’s strong narrative and his reading, brings the cast of this novel to life, with all of their darkness and their light. It is through their strengths and weaknesses that I felt a real connection with the characters of this story.Though I had a love for each character, I think it was the dialogue of Stephen, that led to the most laughs, of which there were many.

Bartlett’s use of flashbacks and reflections was expertly implemented as well, allowing the listener to gain further insight into the actions of Aston and those around him. Bartlett is careful to leave breadcrumbs throughout the story so that the reader can see the various clues about the place, but these same clues are often met with their own questions. The clues start from the first chapter, in the form of a news reel, and we see other seemingly insignificant events occur as the story progresses.
