Produktbeschreibung

A coming-of-age tale set in a small Canadian town in which a twelve-year-old boy discovers the hard truths about life, death and love over a summer break.

In the spring of 1971, Owen Brand and his family move to the riverside town of Middlecross in a renewed attempt to escape poverty. For twelve-year-old Owen, it's the opportunity for a new life and an end to his family's isolation. He quickly falls in with a gang of three local boys and forms a strong bond with Jennifer, the rebellious daughter of a violent, alcoholic father. As summer brings release from school, two figures preside over the boys' activities: Walter Gribbs, a benign old watchman at the yacht club, and Hodgson Fisk, a vindictive farmer tormented by his past. Then the boys stumble on a body washed up on the riverbank-a discovery whose reverberations will result, as the year comes full circle, in a cataclysm that envelops them all...

This River Awakens is dark realism set in a world of shattered small-town characters by Steven Erikson, one of fantasy fiction's living greats.
