The Ferryman by Justin Cronin was received directly from the publisher and I chose to review it. I have read this author in the past and found while he has a vivid imagination, his books are way to long for my liking. This book was the same. This book is long and takes place over a long period of time (read: decades). The first half is a slow burn that I had to re-read parts of to keep track of what was going on, as there was so much going on and there was a lot of dialogue with slow action taking place. If you, or someone you buy gifts for is a Cronin fan, or enjoy long intricate stories, give this book a read.
3 Stars.
