A review by tales_of_erasmo
Black Canyon by Jeremy Bates

5.0

So I received a free e book version of this novella from the author himself. I never read any of his work. Going into it, I didn't expect much. Boy was I wrong. It captivated me from the beginning. I knew that "something" was going to happen because I was told in the beginning. Little did I know HOW it was going to happen. The story is short and straight to the point. Who knew so much can happen in less than 100 pages? The whole thing was suspenseful, thrilling, psychotic, insane, and I'm not even sure there are enough words to describe it. The last 15 pages or so had my heart beating faster than I could read. And that's pretty fast. I went on an emotional and psychotic rollercoaster with Brian, the main character. It was as if I became Brian and entered his twisted mind. It was terrifying yet thrilling. Honestly, this novella was amazing. I recommend it to anyone.
