Review of A Persistent Echo
Posted: 28 Nov 2022, 06:52
[Following is an official OnlineBookClub.org review of "A Persistent Echo" by Brian Kaufman.]
A Persistent Echo is an intriguing historical fiction book by Brian Kaufman about the strange sighting of a mysterious airship in Rhome, Texas. The book is basically a story about August Simms, who is an explorer and traveler coming back to Rhome, Texas, upon hearing the news about the mysterious airship. The author talks about August's and his friend Ackerman’s adventure going around Texas trying to find out the truth about the mysterious airship. What did they discover? Why are they chasing after a mysterious airship? Is the airship real?
The book starts with August coming to Rhome, Texas, by train and making his way to Nadine Martin’s boardinghouse. The author talks about how August embarked on various journeys trying to get to the bottom of the mysterious airships spotted in several places. What did he discover? What happened in the past when he was in Rhome? Why did he embark on this journey?
One positive aspect I found in this book was the interesting and captivating storyline of the book. I love the way the story was based on a real-life event but with some twist. I love the style of writing in the book. It is clear, precise, and easy to read. The book was basically a page-turner with a captivating storyline. I also loved that I learnt different scientific terms, like the term chromatic aberration, which the author defines as “a sort of color smearing or distortion.” I liked the interactions between the characters. I especially loved August's conversation with Natalie in chapter six when she was asking him questions about some things she found in his room while going through his stuff, especially her little innocent question about what was so great about the great war. August's reply, “Absolutely nothing,” was quite funny. I also love the author’s pictorial representation of the headstone Bill made for Bullet.
I didn’t find any negative aspects while reading this book. I found only a few errors in the book. I would say this book was professionally edited. I rate the book 5 out of 5 stars because it is a really interesting and informative book with a great plot, and I found no reason to deduct a star.
I recommend this book to persons who are into historical fiction books. I also recommend the book to people who are into history and people who are into sci-fi books. I would also recommend it to people that love adventurous books.
