'Til the End A Novel of Murder Addiction and Lies edition by Joseph Patrick33 Dennis Lowery Literature Fiction eBooks Reviews
Some great friendships are forged in our youth especially in team sports. The stories of four friends are told in this book which is set in Detroit, between 1988 and 1993.
Ryan, Tyler, Jacob and Avery are high school football stars, young men with a future, looking forward to fame, fortune, money and success. High spirited and with the world at their feet, they have their dreams of fame and fortune, and the world in their pockets, so to speak.
Suddenly however all this alters when something happened one night, a horrific event which changes everything. They must protect each other, and so they make a pact, their secret can never be revealed…
When something like this occurs, it can’t help but change the people involved, life will never be the same, but it must go on and everyone must deal with it in their own unique way.
As they struggle to keep the secret, each day wondering if it will surface, the boys search for escapism in the usual ways, and alienate the ones they love. Involvement in the worlds of drugs and drink, the untimely death of two of them, and abuse tear them apart. This is a very interesting read.
Perhaps it should be used as an example, or reminder that life is not a video game, you can’t reset the screen or reload the game, once something is done, it cannot be undone – you must live with the consequences for life, the buck stops with you!
I downloaded this book with my Unlimited subscription.
The setting of story takes place in Detroit and then followed the four main characters through 12th grade and college. The story is about four high school friends that played on the school football team. Their whole world were about football and one day making it to the pros. A dumb decision will change their lives forever. I love the different personalities of each character and how the writer bridged them together. The story was a straight forward easy read. It had everything that I needed in a good book, lies, murder, drugs, secretes, and deceit. I would of loved more background from some of characters to understand them better. Overall it is a good read and I highly recommend it.
I received a paper back copy from the writer for a honest review. My opinions are my own.
'TIL THE END is a 'coming of age' tale of 4 high school senior football star buddies, for whom football is the be-all and end-all of life. There is nothing beyond football in the future for any of them, and all they are interested in is how their team (undefeated though the last game of the regular season) does (which includes aerobic steroids for them all), boning teenage girls, getting drunk and high on weed and coke, and partying. Despite all this, two of them, Jacob and Ryan ,manage decent grades and are already (probably) accepted at USC and Cornell, respectively. The other two, Tyler and Avery, are less academically inclined but still star players and expect offers of some kind from less prestigious universities.
Two unfortunate and crucial events occur - one during the final game of the season and one during an immediate post-game party that links them and changes the direct of their lives forever, and not in a good way. Two of them never reach 25.
The writing is economical and simple. The entire short novel (195 pages) is a quick one or two part read. There are no major surprises or plot twists, yet despite this, the novel is engaging and interesting. This will be especially true for ex-High School Football players and popular jocks, neither of which includes me. There are a number of horrible things that happen, As far as I remember (I am 25 years beyond that late 1980s and early 1990s in which the novel is set) steroids, drugs, heavy drinking and high stakes gambling were not part of my High School experience, not that of the jocks. But maybe, if you were a senior in 1989, they were part of yours.
This is not your typical coming of age novel, but it definitely falls into that category. The sex that is rampant is all behind the scenes and so this is appropriate (perhaps as a cautionary tale?) for YA audience as well as adults. No happily ever after here, but still a satisfying ending.

When I came across this book, I was interested in the suspense that was described, although I have no liking for football what so ever. I decided to give this a try based on the reviews and I am so glad that I did. This book is a very simple read and it’s written in a lax style that allows me to enjoy this book without too much concentration. The writer wastes no time introducing the key stars in this book, Ryan, Tyler, Avery, and Jacob. I like that I knew exactly who each of the boys were right from the beginning of the book, and I was able to gauge their character and have a better understanding of their actions as the book progressed. The football scenes in the book were tolerable for me and I was continuously engaged and kept wanting to read more, especially when the action begins in the story. This book really gets you thinking about those ‘what if this happened to me’ scenarios and I found myself reflecting back on my own personal attributes and morals as the story proceeded. I think that this book is a good reminder of how our past may always come back to haunt us and I would highly recommend this if you are looking for a comfortable read that touches on several life lessons. I was (very kindly) sent this product for free or at a discounted rate in exchange for my honest review. I did not receive any monetary compensation for reviewing this product and my thoughts and opinions are 100% unbiased and that of my own.
awesome book!!!
