Title: A better effort than a rewrite.
Review: On of the tension interest points was the similarity or lack of it from the original, which I have and have read. There are too many similarities, I do not believe that the writer never read the original before writing this one. Likely read and forgot. Zeke Pendergast vs this writer's named person? The scout, the parents, so much that is too close, and yet far enough to have the cry of plagiarism invalidated. The serial numbers are filed off successfully.But there are as many differences. And the writing is better, the sports knowledge deeper, the motivations a bit different, there isn't a chicken, it is not a kids novel.I enjoyed it, I enjoyed his golf stories more.
Is the review positive or negative?
