Some extra love for Blake Crouch. He wrote this three-srory book (there's gotta be a word for that), where the first book was Run. That was my introduction to Blake Crouch, and holy cow, what a story. Recursion was fun. Most recently of his I read Famous, which was a real departure from the norm for him, but also still him.
Anthology or Composite novel. Was kinda hard to find. I don't know if them being interconnected to create a larger narrative is a hard qualifier for composite novel.
Anthology is definitely the word I was looking for, but I just didn't know it at the time.
I also don't know if anthology is only stuff that was compiled later, or if it includes works that were meant to be unrelated and published together.
I picked up Famous at the book crawl a few weeks ago, it’s on my list to read soon. I’ve read everything else except his Wayward Pine trilogy, I’m still looking for the second. I read Dark Matter when it was first published. He’s one author that I will purchase any unread book as soon as I see it.
Run was crazy intense! I read that a few years ago, is it part of a series?
The three stories were unrelated to each other, so not a series unfortunately. But maybe for the best.
Wayward Pines was fun, definitely got something to look forward to.
