The Boys of the Dixie Pig

This is Stacy Childs’ second novel, and the first one I tried to read, but I only got 20% of the way through this book before I chose to abandon it, right before the start of chapter 15. The story started out with a reunion of men who had known each other in college, but had mostly not kept in touch. One of the fellows was a physician who had developed a company that did cryogenics – fast freezing people with terminal diseases so they could be awakened when cures for the conditions were finally developed. But, there was a hint that reincarnation would become a part of the story, which also included loan sharking and murder.


Basically, I was not impressed with the character development, the plot, or the quality of the writing. I decided it was not worth spending any more time with it.
