I really tried to get into this book and I really don't want to hurt anyone's feelings, so I'm just going to say it's not my cup of tea. Also, the typos drove the former copy editor in me insane. This review was written for LibraryThing Member Giveaways. At page 50 I am adding this to my 'did not finish' list.First 21 pages are made up of the Christian, Greek, and Norse gods playing Frisbee, calling each other ‘dude and brah’ and making dick jokes. Page 40 finally into the story yay!or so I thought. This is a modern retelling of the christian Adam and eve creationism theory where Mac goes around naming things as he see's them on this island where he lives and longs for a female presence to come along or Jane as Mac has already named her. Maybe this book will get better further into it but I am just not finding any enjoyment in this book. sem resenhas | adicionar uma resenha
An apocalyptic adventure of awakening, madness, and revelation, Sonspot, is the tale of Mac-a coming of age man who is plagued by supernatural nightmares. Fed up with the depraved world he was born in, he asks for death. What he gets is the complete opposite; buried memories of his eternal soul on the Island of Eden and the damnation that follows. With the aid of a magic gum, the mysterious divine flow unfolds before Mac and his best friend, leading them on an adventure through the nine levels of hell; answering one fundamentally scary question that haunts us all to our grave.

Technically, much of the writing desperately needs a proofreader/editor. Frequent word confusions (mongrel vs. mogul, hoard vs. horde, etc.) and ambiguous pronouns, scene continuity/causality issues (beyond those that seemed deliberate as part of the story), a couple of apparent search-and-replace weirdnesses ("IT" and "sMacs" everywhere), etc. Such things may seem nitpicky, but they were very common throughout and often had the effect of sprinkling speedbumps all over the already-weird reading experience.
In short, "Sunspot" strikes me as what might have resulted if Dante was a drugged-out middle-school kid whose world revolved around surfing, frisbees, and metal music, deeply inspired by Bill and Ted with a dash of Buddy Christ, when he decided to write Inferno. Bro. ( )
