sandro_reads 's review for:

Lost Man's Lane by Scott Carson
4.5
adventurous funny mysterious reflective medium-paced
Plot or Character Driven: A mix
Strong character development: Yes
Loveable characters: Yes
Diverse cast of characters: No
Flaws of characters a main focus: No

It’s rare that a book can evoke both laughter and fear which is a testament to how grounded the story feels in the wonderful cast of characters.

Masterfully written with the perfect mix of nostalgia and tension, Lost Man’s Lane is a coming-of-age tale with a touch of supernatural/horror in the vain of Stephen King.

SPOILER-ISH
My one minor complaint is when an author has a character reveal the full backstory which could have easily been shared much earlier.
