kmcbee 's review for:
The Rust Maidens
by Gwendolyn Kiste
It won a Bram Stoker Superior Achievement in a First Novel, but I'm not sure why. It wasn't scary. The characters are all caricatures. I'm not sure of their motivations. I'm told instead of shown their emotions. And I have no idea why the Rust Maidens came to be other than the overwrought symbolism of their representing a dilapidated Cleveland. Several reviewers mentioned the main character's relatability, but she did not even feel real to me (though neither did anyone else in the book). In short, I do not recommend.
