REVIEWS
"Fascinating story from a master of 90's pop culture! I really enjoyed this debut novel of J Allen Tucker's and eagerly await the next installment. This is a great read for teens and those who remember growing up in the 90's." - Amazon Customer

"Having grown up in the 90's this book was a huge nostalgia bomb. So many details took me back to that time period and when I put the book down I started to wonder what year it was. Lots of time was put into little tiny details of that time period, so much so that I started pulling out my old Pearl Jam CD's and checking track times. It's a mix of thriller, mystery, teenager angst and a touch of horror. The book really picks up in the last third to a satisfying conclusion, but I want to know what the author will do next." - Steve Talk About Books and Stuff (Goodreads Review)

"If you're looking for a combination of light-hearted nostalgia and creative (yet increasingly intense) mystery, this is a great pick. Set in the late eighties and early nineties in rural Georgia, 'Sylas Sterling and the Lucas County Curse, ' captivates readers immediately with references to this era while the thickening plot keeps them turning the pages." - Tracy C. (Amazon Review)

"Having grown up in the 90s, I enjoyed all the cultural references from my youth. The story line was interesting and left the potential for a sequel." - K. Pattillo (Amazon Review)
