Master of Reality by John Darnielle

4.0

Jesse and Stacy gave me three books in this series and I'm really thankful. I read this one while in the ER yesterday, which was just perfect.

A story of a boy sent to a mental hospital and denied all of his tapes, including Master of Reality. I was worried about this form of storytelling, at first, but in the end it worked out well.

I didn't listen to Black Sabbath until college, and the book brought out some qualities of the band that I didn't appreciate.
