Stage Whispers The Collected Timmy Quinn eBook Kealan Patrick Burke
Please bear with the following tirade:I am unbelievably annoyed. I stumbled upon Mr. Burke's Turtle Boy yesterday and ended up trying to finish the series today: his writing is just that good. Because the press releases in April of 2012 stated that he was finishing up the series in few days, I kept reading. I was blithely unaware of exactly how disappointed I would feel when I was deprived of the final book in the series. It appears that Mr. Burke has had a personal problem and has delayed the release of Nemesis. I am selfish enough to hope he has fingers left to hit the keys on his computer.
On a serious note, I do not write reviews in the first person (read my other reviews). However, I stumbled upon the Timmy Quinn Series by accident: I was looking for a free book to blow off a couple of hours. I have read thousands of books and it is unusual to find an author I truly find gifted. It is more unusual to find one that is gifted and has unique ideas. Only Stephen King and Dean Koontz have excited me as much as Kealan Burke because they all write with a style that manages to evoke vivid mental images relating to a reader's own life experiences: thus, their books come alive in a reader's mind.
As for the Timmy Quinn Series, from a reader's perspective, it is difficult to figure out what books go where and when. They are: 1) Turtle Boy; 2) the Hides; 3) Vessels; 4) Peregrine's Tale; and 5) Nemesis (release has been delayed). A reader can purchase books one through four in a composite titled Stage Whisper: the Collected Timmy Quinn Stories. I encourage readers to do this as it will save them money and time. All of these books should have been incorporated into one volume/book instead of four separate short novellas. Readers will have to wait for Nemesis. The Turtle Boy can be gotten for free on Amazon, but this is a waste unless a small taste of this author's work is required to determine whether or not the series is worth reading.
The plot of the Timmy Quinn Series is very simple: I see dead people. The hook is that the dead people are (usually justifiably) seeking revenge for their untimely death and use poor Timmy as their conduit into this reality. I will not go into each book's plot as that is available as part of the advertisement on Amazon. However, if you are looking for a good horror story, you will not find better. Burke's intros are so candid they are hilarious. He's new, he's fresh, and he's creative. I just want him to stay sane enough to finish this series.

Stage Whispers The Collected Timmy Quinn eBook Kealan Patrick Burke Reviews
I purchased the first book Turtle Boy when it was on sale. I loved it so much I purchased Stage Whispers which contains the entire series. Burke does a great job of making his readers connect with the main character, Timmy. Very well written, the series kept me on the edge of my seat until the very end. I didn't want to put it down.
I bought The Turtle Boy late one sleepless night on my kindle. What a nice surprise to find a new author who keeps you interested with the story and characters. After finishing the first book I went searching for the second. Yeah! They are all in a great collection where I read one right after the other. Good story. Easy read. Will definitely look for more from this author.
This book is very intriguing. From the moment I began reading it the author pulled me in and captured my attention firmly. The author is an excellent writer. Language is diverse and can be educational in a fun way. It was not what I originally had thought it would be based on the name, but proved to be SO much more!!! ) A superb read from start to finish.
First off, let me just say I have loved every single Tim Quinn story. The whole concept of it is terrifying and I've had to set the stories aside a time or two just to get some distance from those vengeful spirits! That being said, this last story about Peregrine was a wee bit slow. I still loved it, and it gives a few clues about what's coming up for Tim and his love Kim. Hell yes, I'll be reading the next book! I've already bought it. More importantly, I would recommend this book to anyone who loves a good ghost story.
As luck would have it, I was about to start reading the Timmy Quinn series when I realized I could get it all in one place. Perfect!
Mr. Burke really knows how to push my buttons in most of his stories. This grouping was no exception. The lake a hundred yards from my bedroom window is no longer a pretty little scene out of a Disney movie.
These stories moved quickly and seamlessly, keeping me turning the pages eagerly. I found myself at first creeped out, then became jumpy, and honestly, a little squeamish. Fantastic! Why else would I read a horror book? Also, as the stories progressed, the writing pulled me in and I became somewhat emotionally involved, angry and disappointed with characters; feeling sadness for others.
The physical and emotional struggles of the characters, not to mention their terror, became increasingly vibrant, and definitely more bone chilling, as the story developed.
All in all, I loved this set and can't wait for more!
There's a lot I could say about this book. I'm just going to go with it's GREAT! Each story gets better, and better. Being that this book is 4 stories it's hard to give a review on the book as a whole, so instead I'm going to say what I think of the author.
Kealan Patrick Burke, in my opinion is one of the greatest horror authors of our time. He bridges the gap between authors like Brian Keene and Robert McCammon. Where as Keene writes the equivalent of punk rock songs, and McCammon writes the equivalent of symphonies. Mr. Burke lies some where in between. He has that raw, visceral edge like Keene, as displayed in "KIN", But he also has that character development, and the ability to to weave together an story that surprises you and sticks with you for months after you've read it. "KIN" still gives me the creeps a year after I've read it...
I've read almost everything by Kealan Patrick Burke and I intend to read all of it. I have yet to be disappointed by a single story. The Timmy Quinn series, KIN, and 30 miles south of dry country being my favorites. You can't go wrong buying this guys work. He IS ONE OF THE GREATS!
