THE WATCHER’S TALE BY R.M. WILBURN

The delectable series of books comprising Mary Morgan’s Journal continues with Book 3: The Watcher’s Tale. Any glorious superlative used to adequately describe the whole literary creation of R.M. Wilburn automatically applies as well to this most recent, eagerly-awaited sequel. You really should start at the beginning, though, if you want to fully savor a truly unique reading experience. Each story combines humor, intrigue, and exotic adventure, with the awesome graphics typical of a vibrantly colorful, deeply entrancing computer game. One searches each illustrated scene just as he would navigate his way through such a game, not realizing he is simply reading a story written with considerable skill. In other words, imbibing these books feels like an interactive experience rather than the mere reading of a compelling tale. Astonishing, really.

Now, a rather startling revelation regarding Mary Morgan’s Journal, effectively developed in The Watcher’s Tale, is that R.M. Wilburn has presented the reader with a timely and sharply-pointed satire wickedly dissecting our present maelstrom of political incompetence, misdeeds, and misdemeanors. The leading characters are obvious; the psychology more complex. Bigly Rump, is of course, the central antagonist. Wilburn’s reluctant study of Rump’s base motivations and freakish goals – including an abduction scheme actively targeting young children (with a grisly nod to Soylent Green) – grabs the reader’s attention even more with its contemporary relevance and urgency. And with monikers like Bogus Piehole, Dubious Hedger, and Posthumous Krill, the characters in this series (and this book) will have you chuckling muchly and leaving you clamoring for more. Much more.
