In some cases, the avatar takes on the role of providing commentary for the story and delivering the author's verdict. Good signs you are looking at an Author Avatar include: looking identical to the creator (or being played by the director), sharing strong political viewpoints with the creator, being named after the author or having a very similar name, sharing life circumstances or family situations, and being declared an Author Avatar by Word of God.
While many characters may be inspired by some aspect of their creator (it's hard to write a hero you have nothing in common with) an Author Avatar is a direct analog, as if the author were dropped directly into the world they've created. Still, Wilson's fresh voice holds promise, and CBA thriller aficionados should welcome this debut.A fictionalized version of an author who appears as a character in the events of the story. The ending disintegrates into prolonged mayhem, with some light gore and a predictable showdown with the bad guys. Occasionally, the writing veers off into the genuinely strange, and at more than 400 pages, some cutting would have helped the pacing. Strong verbs carry the text, but the slangy dialogue turns stale down the stretch. Quirky twists delightfully catch the reader off-guard throughout the story, and Wilson nimbly sprinkles clues throughout. To help defeat the forces of evil, Josee must rely on the fragments of a faith she's mostly left behind. "Elements that remain dark to our mortal eyes." Things get creepy, with blood and vaporous green mists like serpents showing up in unlikely places. "Hidden things are at work here," cautions Marsh's mother. The canister holds a poison for the body and the soul. Now a cynical artist and poet in her 20s, she's come upon a canister that will make her a pawn in a horrendous scheme. Framing his novel around chess strategy, Wilson introduces Josee Walker, once given up for adoption rather unbelievably by her wealthy parents, Kara and Marsh Addison.
In this bizarre thriller for the Christian market, a jilted old woman with a hatred for men has a deadly secret that could wreak havoc upon the population of the Oregon coast.
