Seller's Description:
Fine. A fresh, bright unread copy. Inscribed "For Mary, This shot of fine Houston swamp water..." and SIGNED by the AUTHOR on the title page. 243 pages. Signed by Inscribed by author. William "Dead" Kennedy has problems. He's haunted by family, by dead people with unfinished business, and by those perfect pop songs that you can't get out of your head. He's a 32-year-old Texan still in love with his ex-wife. He's just lost his job at Petco for eating cat food. His air-conditioning is broken, there's no good music on the radio, and he's been dreaming about ghost roads. When Will's cousin ("My dad married your Aunt Dot's half-sister") calls in the middle of the night about a dead girl haunting his garage, helping him out seems like an easy way to make a thousand dollars. But nothing is ever that simple, especially when family is involved. Will's mother is planning a family reunion of epic proportions. Will's ex-wife is married to a former Marine who knows Will is bad news. Will's 12-year-old daughter, Megan, thinks he needs someone to look after him. And recently his dead relatives seem to want something from him.
My first Sean Stewart book was "Mockingbird" and I liked it a lot.
I found "Perfect Circle" to be a little darker and edgier than "Mockingbird", and that's not a bad thing. If anything, I found the writing of "Perfect Circle" to be even better than "Mockingbird". I love flawed characters and this book is full of them. The main character seems unable to stop the events in his life from unfolding even when he has the ability to change. He seems bent on self-destruction and invents ways to hurt himself.
I loved his daughter in the book, 13 going on 30.
One of my favorite things about Sean Stewart is his story-telling on at least two levels. You can take the book for face value and enjoy a well-written book. You can also interpret the story in a second way, not as obvious and have some great discussions.
I also like the way Stewart brings the people of Texas alive. I've lived in the Southwest and I can hear the inflection in the chartacter's voices as I read. Its almost like evesdropping on their conversations.
This book is a little off-beat and very charming. I know there's more of Sean Stewart's books in my future.
