I’ve never been much for anthologies as a rule. I like to wade into a book and submerge myself in the story for hours. That said; I really enjoyed the stories that make up Welcome to Redemption. I liked how the eight characters intertwined in each other’s lives even when they weren’t the main focus of that particular story. So, even though Welcome to Redemption is an anthology it doesn’t feel like one. It reads like a novel with well rounded characters and multiple plot lines. For two authors to blend four stories into one seamless book is remarkable. I’ve heard authors Stacey Joy Netzel and Donna Marie Rogers are working on a sequel, and I’m looking forward to reading it.
