Happy Wednesday and welcome to day 8 of this blog tour!
The person hosting me today is a long-time friend, fellow author, and Story Empire contributor, John Howell! I’ve even had the pleasure of meeting John in person a couple of times, which is almost unheard of in our large blogging community. He has a unique sense of humor that really shines in his blog posts. His two fur babies, Lucy and Twiggy, are almost as famous as John. 🙂 His unique style of writing sets him apart from the herd. I’ve loved everything I’ve read and can highly recommend any and all of his books. His most recent, Eternal Road, The Final Stop will soon have a counterpart, and I can’t wait to read it! Here’s my review of Eternal Road.
Afterlife, History and Romance all rolled into one!
I loved everything about this unique story by John Howell. When James dies in a single-car accident, he is met in the afterlife by a childhood friend who disappeared when they were in grade school, and her body was never found. She has taken the assignment of helping James adapt to the afterlife and find his eternal home. The adventures start when they experience time travel back to pivotal times in history, all while still in the ’56 olds that James crashed in the physical world. From the gunfight at the OK Corral to the Alamo, to a World War, James finds himself placed at strategic moments of time that facilitate self-discovery. He even has a face-to-face encounter with Satan himself. And in the midst of it all, Sam and James learn what it means to love someone. They even have love-making adventures, However, one of my favorite parts of the story is when Sam comes face-to-face with her murderer, and he gets the justice he deserves at his own hand. If you are looking for a story that is different from anything you’ve ever read, have a fascination with a “what-if” scenario about the afterlife, and love adventures, you will love this new book from Mr. Howell! It is well-written and fast-paced.
