Murran by F.F. Fiore (Book Review)
Murran by F.F. Fiore
Sitting down with a good novel and reading an intriguing and captivating story has always been one of my hidden hobbies. I don’t seem to have enough time to read as much as I used to, but when given the chance, I will get lost in a novel for hours. As is the case with this new novel I have found, “Murran” by F.F. Fiore. Read more below about this amazing novel.
Synopsis
Frank Fiore’s Murran opens with an unusual predicament for the protagonist, Trey. He has just returned to the United States and he is stopped by airport security, who has him listed as a wanted fugitive. The charge is murder, and Trey only nods before allowing himself to handcuffed and taken to security. A successful opening page grabs the attention of the reader and leaves them curious and wanting more. Fiore does this and continues to deliver as the story progresses from the brutal gangs of Brooklyn in the 1980’s into the world of the Maasai tribe of Kenya. In both worlds Trey struggles to find his place before eventually learning what it means to be an adult, a member of a family, and a Warrior in the Maasai tribe. The novel comes to a head as Trey is forced to come to terms with his past so that he can have a chance for the kind of future he wants. Fiore’s easy prose keeps the reader engaged and eager to read more. Murran dives into youth issues that are often overlooked and while the depiction can be startling it also feels genuine. The novel retains a feeling of authenticity that is punctuated by the rich characterization of people and scene. The vast difference between the concrete of Brooklyn and dirt roads of rural Kenya are not lost by Fiore who accentuates them with strong descriptors that paint a picture for the reader. I would recommend this book for readers who enjoy a well-paced story with interesting characters, action, and situations.

I really like your review of this book. It sounds as if it keeps your interest throughout the book. That is something I always look for, as so many fiction books seem to have too much, ‘filler’; I would love to read this! Thanks for the great review!
These two locations, while seemingly so far apart in distance and different in culture, may have some similarities. I could see that. It sounds like a good read! Thanks!
I like non fiction the best. Sometimes I read a book that maybe isn’t and hope it was true. Like the Barn Dance.
I like reading and this would be fun to read.
This sounds like it could be interesting. If I were to sit down and read a book, this isn’t the type of book I’d choose. I may be surprised though.
