‘The Rains Came Down’ Julian Shaw

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️'The Rains Came Down' by Julian Shaw is an amazing debut novel and is highly recommended.


The story begins when Gareth, his sister Cerys and their mum are on a train ride and a terrible crash happens. Gareth dies in the train crash and is introduced into The Meadow, which is a form of afterlife.


No description of how the afterlife is described will do this story justice. The environment that is described and the societies that exist are like something out f a JRR Tolkien novel.


There are amazing characters in this book and you really feel invested in what happen to them.

What I particularly loved was the links made to real life disasters made throughout the book and the tributes made to the poor souls that lost their lives.


This book really is compulsive reading and is so well written. It is amazing that it is a debut novel and I really hope more stories come out of this land.


Thank you so much to the author for allowing me to read this book in return for a review.
