Summary: A well-written novel from the first time author!
Comment: Robert W. Arnold's "Noel", is an exciting book I bought and actually enjoyed reading it. He had set his dream to write something like a book and he finally made it! For a long time since I know that he did say something years and years ago. So there is a book, he did done a fine job and I am proud of him. I know him as my old classmate (at Virginia School for the Deaf and the Blind, Staunton) and a friend (I'm not sure at this time since I had not seen him almost ten years ago!) So well, I am telling you before you start to roll your eyes, this book is set for the Christmas holidays, but I think he's late and the Easter Bunny is more than happy to do his favor to publish it and put it on the market. I think I had my money worth buying the book and I rather not to say that I am lending him my support for his living expenses in the West coast. But actually he did it for the first time and I had seen his ambition in storytelling and he's creative in making the stories when we were the kids. I have to think hard to see if these stories told in the past were true or just plainly exaggerated? Oh well, he did it anyway. The book is so great, real funny at the most, and at least it is the thought-provoking story. Beware about the famous Dr. Feltgood syndrome! Uh? Yes! At least, it did made me feel so great after done reading the book, mind you! The characters created in the book are almost real and easily follow where the story led. Hilarious ones especially for Mr. Tyme! The big guy in the book, Howard Peel,eventually draw you in his world about his consciences after he brought his town into chaos, despair and anger after he once brought them alive with happiness and the riches of the prosperity. And also he ran away, seeking for the perfect gift for the town to redeem his failures but had not seen him for a year, building consequences against him. The tale told by Howard Peel had succeeded to peel the layers of guilt, greed, rich lifestyles and blind ambition of the free enterprise. The distinction of the tale between the town and the dream world seems similar but convincing. Even the outcome at the ending, bringing a hope, not abandoning the purpose to celebrate the Christmas. Wow, it is an unique story! He did wrote something in resemblances of his people in Virginia but nothing in the book is purely coincidental. Who knows? I can tell you to go on and to get the book, read it and you would be glad you did it. I applaud you for the finest writing and hope to see your second book coming real soon!

Summary: Yes, a mustbuy!
Comment: This book has so many incredible parts. The best part, in my honest opinion, is the character Mr. Tyme - his encounters with the main character Howard Peel are hilarious, yet after a while you realize they are truly profound and amazing. The whole book, set around a Christmas crisis, fools you into thinking it's one of these disgustingly cheerful books about Christmas. And while it IS a feel-good book ultimately, the vivid images conjured up by the author's hand are just amazing. Non-preachy moral lessons, amazing visual imagery, and humor - what more can you ask for from a book?
Buy it no matter what the season.
