What readers are saying:
The Mother of All Things is a very well written book with complex and detailed characters, a plot that twists and turns enough to maintain interest all the way through.
Elaine in particular is a character that readers grow to know, and yet feel like there is always something we don't know about her. This is a tricky thing to do, yet the author does a great job with it. (Rodney Strong)
Extremely well written. Can not believe it's the Authors first book. Kept me on the edge of my seat the whole way through. It would make the most amazing film ... (Dena Parker)
Have just finished reading The Mother of all Things. What a great book, I couldn't put it down, all the twists and turns were amazing. (A. D. Moore)
I found this a roller coaster of a read. The climax of the story, out of the blue, was explosive veering more towards horror than thriller. The loose ends are then neatly tied up. I thoroughly enjoyed the read and I'm going to follow where this author goes next. This book demonstrates he can create believable characters, do suspense and mystery and also full-on action and horror. If he chooses the later I might have to read with one eye closed. (Diana Febry)
There are crimes and mysteries to solve. As the body count rises, the reader is even more mystified as to who the perpetrator is. I suspected just about everyone.
The characters are well drawn. The lead character took up residence in my head. I 'lived' the action through her.
Gabriel Blake imagined a very well thought out plotline with twists and turns that kept the action alive and me on tenterhooks. There were definitely jaw dropping moments. An excellent novel that would translate well into a movie. (Julia Wilson)
This journey of Elaine pulled me in. It proves an author’s ability to describe with a detail psychological process of a human nature. What is real, what is not when a mind cannot really differentiate that? Sane or crazy? It is a deeply touching story, scary at times but wanting to know what will happen next, I kept reading. Excellent writing. (Joanna Marta Pilatowicz)
For a debut novel the author did an excellent job. A dark and somewhat disturbing novel which keeps you guessing until the end. Even when you think you have it figured out, he surprises you again. The writing flows effortlessly, draws you in and I couldn't put it down until I'd finished it. If you enjoy thrillers with a twist I recommend this book. (Bronwyn Kotze)
