Would you try another book from Ken Pelham and/or Mark Kamish?
Unlikely. Interesting ( although somewhat derivative ) concept, poorly executed.
What was most disappointing about Ken Pelham’s story?
Very scattered, dragged out and some frankly poor editing . The sexual scenes in the midst of otherwise violent , life-threatening situations is , honestly, gratuitous.
What didn’t you like about Mark Kamish’s performance?
Again, there is potential here, but he is slow, almost painfully so, and changes tone and context so often as to be almost unlistenable. I ended up doubling the speed of the playback just to move it forward and still found it very a very difficult experience.
If you could play editor, what scene or scenes would you have cut from Place of Fear?
Take the idea, find a sharp editor, and bring in a different performer.
Any additional comments?
This started out strong and lagged as it moved on. I was provided this book by the author in exchanged for a fair and unbiased review, and this is it. The dragged out content and performance render this book an offering I cannot ( unfortunately, as the concept was there ) recommend.
