For a while now, I have seen this series frequently recommended in few of the Book Reader/Listener Groups , I belong.
And did something, I usually don’t do , I went in blind. I didn’t read reviews. I doubt I would have listened/read it I had done so.
This is a fluffy , Rainbows and Unicorns , completely baffling Mafia story .
I say this because when I think of Mafia in Fiction and Real Life names like Don Corleone, Al Capone, Tony Soprano , Lex Luther, Pablo Escobar , John Gotti , Joaquín “El Chapo” Guzman and so on and on pop in my mind. This story and Mafia King is far, far removed from any RL or fiction tales , I have ever read , heard or watched.
There is a thing called Suspension of Disbelief and Snow Falling stretch it out to the max.
On the positive side:
Phillip Alces and Joel Leslie narration was well done and helped me power on with the story.
Snow and Christopher the heroes were likeable as well as Simon , a young secondary character .
I , now know, Snow Falling is the debut novel by Davidson King. Since then, I am told by people I trust and share same taste in books ; she has learned and have mastered her craft a great deal and other books of series are great. I will continue reading this series as I love a good redemption tale.
