'The Early Years of 'Squirt' Malone' is an exceptional historical fiction novel. It beautifully captures the essence of the carnival era and the establishment of professional wrestling. The author, Richard W. Kelly, has a captivating writing style that engrosses the reader from the very beginning. I was initially under the impression that it was an autobiography due to the immersive first-person narrative.
The book has a remarkable ability to transport the reader into the world of 'Squirt' Malone. The storytelling is masterful, with each chapter seamlessly connecting and contributing to the overall narrative. The protagonist, John Malone, later known as 'Squirt,' is a compelling character with a perfect balance of immaturity and brave determination. His relentless pursuit of his dreams kept me hooked throughout the book.
The only minor flaw I found in this book was some punctuation mistakes, but they were negligible and did not hinder the overall reading experience. The book is highly intriguing and deserves a solid 4 out of 4 stars rating. I cannot deduct a star as there is nothing substantial to criticize. However, it would have been even more enjoyable with fewer errors.
I highly recommend 'The Early Years of 'Squirt' Malone' to fiction lovers, especially those who appreciate first-person narratives. This book is a gem, and if you enjoy immersive storytelling, then it is a perfect choice for you.
