This is a story of a young white boy and the obstacles he faces in South Africa, a country rife with racial discrimination and hatred. At a young age he learns to box out of a desire to defend himself. Boxing continues to play a central role in his life in the challenges he faces. It is a book of immense inspiration, friendship, overcoming obstacles and self discovery. The Power of One remains one of my all time favorites. With amazing writing, vivid portrayals, intriguing characters, it definitely keeps the readers interest and throws them into one of the best stories in literature.

With a hard-edged main character who is a street smart, 9-ball prodigy, a temperamental tomboy, too knowing to accept her surroundings and too circumscribed by them to find release, comes a novel, and character, that isn’t easily forgotten. Cassie Claiborne grew up in hard times but learned to get by with flying fists and a steely resolve. Her comfort was in the local pool hall where she found her oasis where she could master objects and restrain her emotions. It is an enthralling novel with broader notions of love, faith, and hope, all written with delicate grace. I love that Kimmel has created a character that I missed the moment I finished the book, and I love how she takes aspects of the everyday and renders them transcendent.

Imagine you woke up one morning to find that everyone over fourteen years was gone. Not dead, no bones, no ashes, just gone. In Shade’s Children, the characters wake up to exactly that, and the horrible knowledge that they will have the same terrible fate when they too are fourteen years old. It is an action story of trying to overcome the animosity that has made itself home in our future world, loaded with trepidation, love, and aspiration. A great Sci-fi novel for any age.
