J.C. Hutchins' book release: 7th Son - Descent


This month, J.C. Hutchins' latest work, 7th Son: Descent hits book stores. This is the wide distribution print release of the first book of the trilogy. The book can be pre-ordered now and will be shipping imminently.

I listened to all three installments in the trilogy when they were first podcast a few years ago, and the book (and new podcast) includes a freshening of many of the story elements and some character tweaks.

I've mentioned before that JC fleshes out his characters very well and in 7th Son - a story about 7 cloned "brothers" who are brought together to use their unique perspectives and talents to help track down a terrorist criminal mastermind - he gets to play quite a bit in that sandbox. The characters that form the core of the story range from a priest to a super-hacker and everything in between.

He does a great job of keeping the characters true to their introduced-selves and each one grows through the story. John, the "every-man", blue collar, guy-making-his-way-in-the-world "middle child" close is someone that most people will be able to identify with, to some degree.

As a long time fan of JC's, I'm very happy to see him release two books in the same year and hope for great success now and with future books.

Congrats, JC.
