Review of The War Within
Posted: 05 Sep 2022, 17:12
[Following is an official OnlineBookClub.org review of "The War Within" by Brad Neyens.]
The War Within is a fictional book by Brad Neyens that explores the life of Brad, a young man who is aspiring to fill his father's shoes as one of the best car racers ever to grace the streets. When a tragedy hits, a newly orphaned Brad is devastated, and he realizes that he needs people to rely on in his life. When Brad discovers the true reason behind his pain was because of a grudge against his father, he is determined to get revenge with help from his companions despite several warnings from loved ones. What will occur when Brad uncovers a little more than he bargained? Will he finally be satisfied after he discovers what caused his loss? Find out in this intriguing piece.
There are positive aspects to be found in this book. I did not find any errors while reading this book. This is sufficient proof that the book was professionally edited. The specific vocabulary and terms used are solid proof of research and expertise. They guarantee a reader some knowledge of car racing and repairs. The book’s short length and light atmosphere ensure that it can be read in a single sitting. There is also an emphasis on the importance of mental health and the means used to foster it among individuals.
There were a lot of elaborate themes in this book, but the most significant for me would be the importance of a healthy parent-child relationship. The relationship between Brad and his father is very admirable, and it symbolizes a value that more people should strive to achieve because of its positive effects. The book wastes no time building suspense but immediately dives into the plot. There is little to no character development, and though this may have been intended by the author, it also means that the book can only satisfy readers who do not require well-rounded characters in whatever they read.
I also discovered a negative aspect while reading this book. The sentences were poorly constructed, the expressions and descriptions as well as event narrations were also poorly written. Particularly in Chapters seventeen and eighteen, the poorly constructed sentences disrupted my reading experience and almost discouraged me from going further. There are also mentions of violence and suicide which may be triggering for some readers.
As a result of the reasons listed above, I rate this book three out of four stars. I would have loved to give a higher rating but the errors were too significant to ignore. I recommend this book to lovers of action thrillers and anyone interested in fast-paced novels.
