get in line to buy this book


Wilderness by Lance Weller

I have read hundreds of books.  I read while I eat, I listen to books while I drive, I sleep with the light on so if I wake up in the middle of the night I can read some more.  I love to read.  I am usually in a hurry when I read because there are so many books waiting to be read (and so much of real life demanding my attention).  That kind of reading works well for ordinary books, but Wilderness is no ordinary book.  It is a work of art made of words.  I was drawn gently into the story with its rich images and complex characters.  I refuse to discuss or disclose plot because every description I have read falls short and I wish everyone could experience the book the way I did, completely without warning.  Like so many of my favorite books, the story builds slowly with seemingly unrelated threads forming a pattern of   relationships.  The story has a unique rhythm that is best enjoyed by completely immersing yourself in it.  With each chapter I thought wow, it just can’t get better than this, and then it did.  I hope you have the same experience I did, when I closed the back cover I immediately opened the front cover to read it again.
