Best book on storytelling I've come across in a long while. A keeper.

Wow, this book looks simple, but it's profound. I love the way Brian McDonald portrays the depth behind a simple idea. Highly recommended for any writer.

Profound short book on the goal of storytelling, with life lessons as well. I got the germ of an exciting story idea from this and will probably re-read to refine it more as I start to write. Highly recommended.

My brother got this for me ages ago, so I suppose it's fitting I read it when I finally got to see him again. This is a book with a very simple, straightforward premise, and there's a lot here that I hope to use in the future. That said, I would have liked more concrete examples of how to implement it, rather than the idea alone.

I prefer his other book, Invisible Ink, though I think the purposes of the two books are pretty different. And yet, this one was somehow lacking, just a little bit--but still great!

An easy read, not the best, but a nice, well-explored thesis. A good resource for further literary analysis.
