[Following is a volunteer review of "The Middle Reaches (Episodes 1-8)" by L. Andrew Cooper.]
I recently had the pleasure of reading the first eight episodes of The Middle Reaches by L. Andrew Cooper. I will start this review by saying there is strong sexual content and strong scenes of violence and cussing in this book. If you do not like reading stories with that type of content, maybe this book is not for you. Otherwise, I highly recommend this book. This serial story takes the reader along on a fantastic journey into a dark realm full of fear and tension. The story is about five friends reconnecting after they attend a reunion for school. After a tragic event happened to their group in high school, they all slowly lost contact. Once reunited, they all face both fear and excitement as they once again explore strange places remembered from their past. The story is about strange happenings and frightening entities. It is fantastical and exciting. I gave this book a five out of five star rating. The story had me enthralled from the first page. The characters are very diverse and well developed. The pace of the story plays out nicely, not too fast but constant enough to keep you immersed in the plot. At the end of each episode the author writes a short note to the reader about the current episode and a little about what's coming in the next episode. This is a nice touch in my opinion. The notes help elaborate on some things in the story that could be a little confusing or unknown to the reader. This makes the reader have a more intimate connection with the author. I enjoyed reading the first eight episodes so much that I am going to finish reading the rest of the episodes to see how the story ends. I hope you enjoy this story as much as I have. Thank you for taking the time to read my review and enjoy your reading!
