Title: The Falling Away
Author: T. L. Hines
Publisher: Thomas Nelson
Genre: Fiction
The Falling Away by T. L. Hines is the story of Dylan Runs Ahead, who, as his name suggests, is running away from all his past memories.
After blaming himself for his missing sister, the protagonist runs away from the place where he grew up. He joins the army just to end up even running from there after his friend’s death in an explosion. Fighting from all past physical and emotional wounds he figures out that he has to run away from people who wants him dead too.
The story takes an interesting turn when he meets a woman who proclaims herself as an oracle and tells him that he is The Chosen One. At the meantime, his friend is also telling him the same thing. After a struggle to accept this fact, he has to stop running and fights the demon ahead, quite literally.
Overall this book doesn’t loose its charm till the end. But some people may find the expressions of self-harm in the book disturbing. Also at some points the story seems very fast paced. T. L. Hines is famous for his thriller and mystery works and even this time he doesn’t disappoint the readers. I would suggest this book for those who find interests in fast paced mystery novels.
Rating: 3.5/5
