Resumen del Editor
Written and Narrated by Tyler Bell of the award winning podcast, The Westside Fairytales
West by God is the story of a young newspaper journalist named Adelaide sent to report on a high-profile murder in the remote (and fictional) town of Targrady, West Virginia. Once she gets there, she discovers the case in question is anything but open-and-shut, and quickly finds herself neck-deep in a mystery that could sink the entire town.
Complicating Adelaide's efforts to get to the bottom of the story are the machinations of a nightmare creature called the Witchum Woman, a local drug syndicate led by the enigmatic Fetid Queen and populated by white supremacists, and the age-old small town suspicion of outsiders.
"West by God" is an adult horror/thriller fiction novel that delves into themes of race, gender, sexuality and justice. It could be found on a shelf beside authors such as Dan Simmons and Davis Grubb.

Historia
It’s 1984, and life has changed beyond recognition. Airstrip One, formerly known as Great Britain, is a place where Big Brother is always watching, and nobody can hide. Except, perhaps, for Winston Smith. Whilst working at the Ministry of Truth, rewriting history, he secretly dreams of freedom. And in a world where love and sex are forbidden, where it’s hard to distinguish between friend and foe, he meets Julia and O’Brien and vows to rebel.

Historia
It’s the summer of ’77 in New York City, and the only thing more unnerving than the scorching heatwave is the rampant murder, leaving washed-up homicide detective Richard Dietrich on edge. When Dietrich investigates a brutal mob hit the brass doesn’t want him to solve, he goes from phoning it in to getting in over his head. Caught up in a mysterious second homicide with an even more perplexing perpetrator, Dietrich starts to second guess his instincts—and his memory—as he searches for answers at the bottom of a bottle.

In spite of its battlefield specificity, The Art of War has found new life in the modern age, with leaders in fields as wide and far-reaching as world politics, human psychology, and corporate strategy finding valuable insight in its timeworn words.

Historia
This newer edition of the King James Bible published in 1769 is usually preferred by most that read it over the older 1611 version. This 1769 edition is highly sought after due to being more reader/listener friendly than the 1611 since many typos were fixed.... We hope your new audio bible will go everywhere with you and be a blessing for years to come.

Strong first novel (to my understanding this is Bell's first novel). Gets to the point, doesn't overstay its welcome.
The highest points have to be the characterization and dialogue; Bell is excellent at both. He as a wonderful command of voice as a writer, and each character feels distinct and alive.
The supernatural elements are creepy, ethereal, oftentimes disgusting, and the language used is incredibly evocative, though so little is explained that it almost feels like Bell may have gotten more mileage out of a more straightforward mystery story. Perhaps it's Tyler's intention to explore more in sequels.
Bell organically brings up a number of potent themes throughout the story (crime, racism, transphobia, fear of harboring some personal prejudice, media manipulation, what the supposedly righteous and powerful are and aren't willing to overlook, the self-cannibalizing and rotting aspects of smaller towns, and more) in ways that feel authentic and often unexpected. However, many are introduced and touched upon only briefly; only a few are truly followed up on and explored in more depth. This might be Bell's intention (in life, answers are hardly obvious or easy) but I'm curious to see what a fully unleashed Tyler Bell could do.
Bell also does the narration, and aside from a handful of first-timer technical issues and slightly hokey voices, he knocks it out of the park.

Fantastic Debut Novel
Reading like Gillian Flynn's "Sharp Objects," but retold by Neil Gaimen, "West by God " is a brilliant supernatural thriller with some weak points.
What I loved most about the book were the characters and their dialogue. My absolute favorite is Mercury, but the entire cast is strong and each feel like a lived character. Along with that I absolutely loved the supernatural elements and how they're worked into the story. The entire Fetid Queen section is exactly what I love in horror/thriller hybrids. Which flows into talking about the prose which tends to be very boiler plate in reality but when things start veering into horror the writing picks up the pace with some great tension writing and descriptive language.
However, the weakest aspect of the story is the core theme. There are numerous topics that Tyler Bell touches on but it never feels to go beyond touching on them. I finished the novel not very sure what had been said other than a compelling mystery. I think of a Chandler book where by the end it feels like every character and plot beat breathes the same concrete message, but I can't say the same with this story.
But given how strong the plot and characters are I can't say that's too big of an issue. You're still in for a great small town murder mystery with a lot to say, even if its a bit unfocused.
