5 Star IHIBRP Book Review: “We Are Souls: Book 1: Rock” by S A Field


An Irreverent And Humorous Look At Humanity In All Its Fallible Glory!

Allen Key has lived many lives. This time around, the death of the British ne’er-do-well causes him to meet up with his prior incarnation, Alex, who transports back in time 4,500-years in history—back to the good ole days of the caveman—in an effort to open his eyes to who he is and how he came to be. As a result, Alan’s life—and that of all who ever lived on this rock we call Earth—is forever changed.

Field’s unconventional story is thoroughly engaging and captivating from the start. Although the author injects a healthy amount of British jargon and speech patterns into the plotline, making this a somewhat difficult and plodding read for any audience unfamiliar with the mother-tongue, “We Are Souls” is a brilliant study in contrasts as it weaves its way through a barrage of both tragic and profound events which—unbelievably so—will often have readers laughing and crying at the same time.

“We Are Souls” is well-worth the read with its introspective view of how history was forged and its’ characters’ irreverent yet insightful commentary on the state of the modern human condition. “We Are Souls” provokes the reader to question just how manna and material goods became the be all and end all of humanity while truth, love, and justice were simply pushed to the wayside. The novel points out that we are, each in our own way—past, present, and future, responsible for what we as a race have become. Likewise, just as one happy then suddenly morose event triggers the next, Field’s main character, Alan, seems to absorb the shock of the resulting death, mayhem, and destruction he witnesses as though it was happening to someone else, until he finally realizes his own crucial role in carrying humanity forward to modern times.

S A Field’s “We Are Souls” will keep you laughing even as its message comes across and imbeds itself in your soul. It’s an irreverent and humorous look at humanity in all its’ fallible glory and proves to be an intriguing read for skeptics, cynics, history-buffs, and philosophers alike.

Congratulations to the author on this award-winning story! This novel will be permanently featured on my website at AuthorJBRichards.com under IHIBRP 5 Star Recommended Reads!
