Opis

Re-cast is book two in a series, preceeded by Typecast by Booker Woodman and followed by book three, Cast-off. Book four is as yet unfinished, with a working title of Cast-away. The first book replicated the immediate existence of our main protagonists who, for the first few pages, were very much two dimensional until Typecast by Booker Woodman stamped its influence upon them. The three following books, Re-cast, Cast-off and Cast-away follow them and other characters that get involved, as they try to overcome the irrationalities and the body count that Typecast by Booker Woodman itself instigated. At the outset of Typecast by Booker Woodman, the reader was unsure who the initial characters were, where they were and what was happening around them. It was not too long before we found out some of the answers. They were soon involved with several deaths, deaths that have been recorded over a period of some thirty years or more, some of them achieved by malicious intent and others by mysterious events, but none of them resulted in convictions. The storyline developed some charismatic characters, Peece, Fitz Ffastt, Agnes Hale and Harriet Aston, to name but four from a worthy list. But, be warned, the series does feature some colourful personalities, so I wouldn't read it to your nippers or send it to your aged great aunt as a gift. The interaction between the protagonists and the humour that they sometimes generate, dry, and at other times farcical, is refreshing in what can only be described as their disturbing and surreal circumstances. I recommend this series to anybody who enjoys the 'odd' death, if only to gain a little understanding of what to expect if they too become... 'Re-cast...'
