Blind but not helpless.
Trying to keep a low profile, Doboro stays with a friend in the peaceful but declining town of Paradise. A charismatic young businessman wants to make drastic changes in the town. He may look like a saint, but he’s a devil in disguise.
Doboro tries to mind his own business, make a little cash singing, and avoid trouble. But trouble and Doboro are old companions, and it isn't long before he finds it.
No matter the consequences, this blind, blues-singing avenging angel will defend his friends and keep the town of Paradise from making a grave mistake.
Long Way from Paradise is book two in an ongoing series that brings listeners strong doses of action, humor, and heart. It’s highly recommended you start your journey with Doboro the Bottlenecker.

Summary:
Doboro (the reborn Dave Granger) tries to lay low by staying with a friend in a small town, hoping his enemies will move on to bigger and better things. But the traveling blues singer and guitarist can’t just stand by when trouble springs up in the peaceful town of Paradise.
Additional Comments:
- 4.5/5 Stars Characters: They’re not always super realistic, but most are awesome all the same. Doboro, the hero, is a blind guy who can whip a sword out from his walking cane. Not realistic. Still very cool. His friend Summer Winter is a hot mess. That probably is more realistic, but she’s likable, even if a bit of a hopeless romantic. Drew’s really only got a bit part in this book, but I’m betting she’ll be back in a greater capacity sometime in the future.
- 4/5 Stars Plot: If this book was one’s only exposure to small town America, you’d think everybody studied martial arts, got into sword fights, and had to rescue damsels in distress from street punks. There’s certainly a high amount of action in here, which I count an improvement over the last book. (The first story had to do a lot of setup in telling how Doboro came to be. That put a lot more emphasis on the character development and less on action plot points.)
- Can you read this as a standalone? I believe so though you will enjoy it more having already known some of the characters. It’s definitely a self-contained story. I listened to the first story and still felt a bit dropped into the story because Summer Winter and Doboro greeted each other like very old friends, but I think they referred to events that happened in the time between books 1 and 2 of the series. Their interactions were natural and comfortable enough to sell the friendship.
- Doboro’s kind of a nice-guy vigilante.
- New characters: Mae Linn’s a nice addition to the cast. Stu’s a bit 1-dimensional, but he fulfills the role as punchable bad guy nicely.
- What kind of a book is this? I’d categorize it as light drama with some Christian themes. There’s a little romance thrown in. (Honestly, I’m about to add chick magnet to Doboro’s resume, right up beside sword master and vigilante.)
- Narration adds a very nice aspect. Narrator has a lovely voice.
- The song included was at the end of the previous book. Still a cool song.
- Favorite part? I always love the parts where Doboro’s showing the blind man magic.
- How does this measure up to book 1? I liked it a hair more than book 1, though I enjoyed that one too. I think it’s the fact that it got right into the action without half the book being spent on creating the character/ changing everything about his world. To be clear, book 1 needed all the background. It provides excellent anchoring and reason to like the character.
Conclusion:
An excellent entry into a unique, fun series.
