Regretting A Purchase

THE SALESMAN by Mason McDonald focuses more on a man who has wronged his wife than The Salesman, who is some kind of supernatural creature.

Readers never find out anything about the mysterious entity. How Tom even knows about The Salesman is never revealed. The author had an opportunity to create a new mythos, but instead continued with an overused tragedy.

Needs More Mona, Less Nate

She wears a leather jacket, drives a muscle car, and can drink a fifth of whisky. To Nate Rankin, Mona's a rock star. But is she human?

Mona by Mason McDonald is about a young woman who is more than she appears to be. The story could've been much better if more focus had been on Mona herself, instead of spending so much time describing what everyone thinks of her. I thought Mona's secret is a clever twist, but I wish the author had included more horror.
