The graphic nature of the animal cruelty was unnecessary. The author attempts to draw the reader into the life and mind of the story's killer with captured moments from this antagonist's early years. This writer then used these moments with long, detailed explanations of several terrible acts against animals. This over-reach destroyed any positive parts of this thriller novel. I do not recommend this nauseating piece of literature.

My first thought when starting “Escaping Innocence: A Story of Awakening” was would a female who grew up in the 70’s be able to relate to a story about a male growing up in the 60’s? After I listened to the first chapter that worry was long gone. The author provided a tapestry of funny and poignant moments that draws the listener in right away.

The story begins by laying the foundation of the main characters development into a “man”. As a listener I truly empathized with that strange time between childhood and adulthood. As the story unfolds you realize that while many of the situations are uniquely male there are plenty of similarities between the genders in sexual development. I truly appreciated the author’s humorous take on situations that most would consider awkward at best.

This story was not just about sexual awakening. The honest insight into race, homosexuality, war and even domestic abuse provide some moments of reflection and pause. Instead of hitting the listener over the head with obviously contrived stories that provide the exact viewpoint the author wants the listener/reader to have the tale is woven with just enough details to allow the story to flow naturally.

As the story progresses you are taken on a fantastic journey that by the conclusion you feel like you have a beat up old suitcase with stickers pasted to it for all the places you have been. The main character and his supporting band of unique and fantastic supporting characters don’t leave you right away after competition of the story. A better compliment I cannot give.

The narrator, Gary Kohler, also deserves high praise. It’s too easy to say his voice was David Justin’s. I had no trouble hearing the wonderment, pain and tone that uniquely was the main characters. When another voice was needed to distinguish the words of another besides the main characters Mr. Kohler was able to capture that character as well without making it sound cartoonish or like he was trying too hard to make them sound different. Bravo Mr. Koheler.
