Review: THE DEAN'S LIST by Jimmy Petrosino 11/10/2011
Dean Perrasani excitedly follows in his older brother’s footsteps when he is invited to take over the fraternity Phi Beta Regnum—which we learn early on is an interesting mesh between Mafia and Skull and Bones. As Regnum’s new “Don,” Dean finds himself a “made man” in a world of thugs, greed, double-crossers, and wanna-be gangsters, and he learns quickly that power and danger go hand in hand. The Dean’s List is a fast-paced, contemporary suspense novel that is as thoughtful as it is well-written. The prose is fragmented, but with purpose, creating a striking marriage of style and content. The story is tight, the characters detailed and believable, and the dialogue sharp. Keep an eye out for this author, as he is definitely up and coming! CommentsLeave a Reply |
