Prodigal Blues

Braunbeck is a master storyteller. He doen't resort to the extreme in the ways of sex and violence. This novel, however, may have been better as a short story, or as a possible novella. The plot doesn't hold up to novel length. I think this book would have benefited from more violence, and possibly even a little gut wrenching horror. It's not on par with his overall work. It is a good, fast read, but I feel he could have made it a little more exciting. Don't get me wrong; normally, Braunbeck doesn't need to add much to his work for the emotional impact is always right on. This, however, didn't contain enough of either.
