My e-copy of The Express was sent to me by author R.K. Howard in exchange for a review.
At approximately 47 pages, The Express is an extremely quick read, also a particularly creepy, scary, thought provoking one.
We don't get to know very much about the main character who is relating the story. We are with him as he boards his usual morning bus. Things go down hill from there, and just continue to get worse. Then they get really bad.
Without getting "preachy" or extolling the virtues of any religious dogma, author R.K. Howard does provoke us into the sometimes uncomfortable consideration of: What's next? Is there an existence after this life? Will there be consequences for how we lived this life?
A lot to bring up with a 47 page story. The Express did have a few typos, but not enough to impact my enjoyment of the book.
If you are ready for a story that will make you think, without trying to tell you what to think, The Express by R.K. Howard is the way to go. Enjoy!
Mike
