Deeply sourced and entertainingly informative, Jackson’s chronology of a transformative year in music, culture, and society may prompt debate (as well as playlist creation) and will appeal to a wide swath of readers.
The second installment starring Devereaux (after False Positive) is a suspenseful action-packed drama that is sure to please fans of the series and mystery/thriller lovers alike. As a stand-alone, it will inspire newcomers to seek out the first book.
Utilizing myriad sources, memoirs, and articles, Jackson weaves the story of a year in which a combination of forces that included a sense of experimentation and revolution and the thriving of a competitive spirit among musicians combined with rapidly moving social changes to forever shape American musical culture. It will appeal to music fans and those interested in the Sixties.
Grant's first stand-alone, after three thrillers featuring British naval intelligence officer David Trevellyan (More Harm Than Good; Die Twice; Even) is a pulse-pounding technothriller. Don't look for personal relationships in these pages; although Marc is humanized by his admiration for artist Roy Lichtenstein, aspects of his marriage strain credulity. But for sheer nonstop action and suspense in the Harlan Coben mode, Grant ranks high, with another page-turner here. [Library marketing.]
This creative, enlightening, and informative work by a welcomed entrant to Beatles scholarship is highly recommended to anyone interested in learning more about the Fab Four's sporadically great post-breakup recordings.
