Gods of Howl Mountain A Novel Taylor Brown Books

I won this book in a Goodreads giveaway and I am so glad I did. Memorable characters especially the grandmother and grandson. The mystery that was at the heart of the story kept me interested as did the backdrop of running moonshine but the characters made me sorry for the story to end. 5 stars for me.

Gods of Howl Mountain A Novel Taylor Brown Books Reviews

This is the best novel I have read in a long time! Taylor Brown brought these characters to life and captured the cadence of the language perfectly. Can't wait for his next one....
Well developed and believable characters. Good picture of how people struggle and even prosper in Appalachia. "Granny" is the mover and shaker driving events--even if most of the men in the story are not aware of it.
This book was pretty good. I was intrigued at first, but it was really slow through the majority. Picks up at the end, but a little too slow overall for me.
Novel set in the Appalachians in 52

This Author has a deep knowledge of the mountains and the people that live there.

Well fleshed out characters.

One of the best I found lately
This guy is an amazing writer! Fallen Land is one of the best novels I've ever read (comparable to McCarthy's Border Trilogy). Gods of Howl Mountain, Country Dark, and In the Season of Blood and Gold (short story collection), all are five star reads. I felt he stumbled a bit on River of Kings, but his latest efforts are nothing short of brilliant.
If you like Pollock, Gay, or Woodrell this is the novel for you. High tragedy meets utter hilarity. I laughed so hard I about you know what. Character driven. Granny May Docherty is one of strongest female characters I have ever met. Gorgeous prose and fantastic dialogue. It would make a great film although I cannot think of an actor who could meet the challenge of Granny May.

Thank you Taylor Brown.
It is very refreshing to discover a contemporary writer like Taylor Brown who writes an original story that doesn't read like a "cookie cutter" novel with superheros and predictable story lines and the same old, tired "good guys always win " ending. I liked this book so well I bought another Taylor Brown book.
