    Fun read!
  

*by A***R on May 22, 2016*









  
  
    I first heard of Tracks on the sffworld.com forums and was immediately caught up in the idea. Hobos, railroad barons, a steampunk fantasy land in a world right next to ours. There there was Vincent, a young man of the modern world who enters this Hobohemia to find his long lost sister. We have had so much steampunk fantasy set in the British Empire that it was exciting to hear of one set in America.And when I finally got around to reading Tracks, it didn’t disappoint.This is the first book I’ve read by Tolan, and I thoroughly enjoyed it. Tracks is a fun, fast paced adventure that kept me turning the pages long after I should have been in bed. Tolan’s characters are deep and complex, each with a conflicting and very real set of motivations. This is one of the best parts of the book, I think. Not only did Tolan explore the joys and triumphs of humanity through his characters, but he also wasn’t afraid to look at our dark side either by literally showing how much our darker natures can control and hurt us.Tolan really created a full, rich world with Tracks. From hobo jungles to steam children to gandy dancers. My only problem with the book was that, at points, I wish Tolan had taken a little more time to describe his world, both the places and some of the more fantastical characters. This didn’t stop me from enjoying the book, but it did draw me out a little at times as I tried to see what Tolan saw in my mind’s eye.Overall, Tracks is a fantastic novel and I highly recommend it. I can’t wait for my next chance to visit Hobohemia!

    Riding the Rails
  

*by K***N on February 11, 2016*









  
  
    K.M. Tolan’s Tracks is a far more complex and layered novel than I was expecting from its blurb, and it deserves more attention than it seems to have received. The story follows Vincent, a young man living on the edge of society in a rather grim world, haunted by the disappearance of his little sister (which he witnessed and may have caused) and his father, both tied to ghostly train tracks and vanishing steam engines.Ten years after those disappearances, Vincent stumbles into a search for his sister and finds himself in Hobohemia, the mysterious and mythical land connecting diverging worlds—and world views. Anchored here and there by its hobo jungles and rail yards, Hobohemia is under attack by the forces of Taylorism, with its assembly lines and diesel trains. Vincent is caught up in the conflict as he learns he is, like his father, a gandy dancer, able to call up living rails and the steam trains that run on them—but at a cost. Along the way he meets steam children, hobo knights, monstrous yeggs, and the rebellious (and very dangerous) daughter of a railroad baron.Hobohemia is full of the mythology of railroading and American folklore; Tracks is capped by a dark and dangerous trip to the Big Rock Candy Mountain. I’d be hard pressed to categorize the novel—adventure, fantasy, steampunk, romance, alternate history? All that and more, as Vincent explores Hobohemia and the lands passes through and revisits the elements of his family: his bitter, reality-bound mother, his long-lost sister, and his father, stuck on the Westbound Train.Tolan’s world-building moves so fast and explains so little that I sometimes wondered just where I was—but so did Vincent. The borders of Hobohemia are ephemeral, and I was left wondering if those ghost trains run through the back roads of this world, too.

    A fun read
  

*by K***L on April 16, 2014*









  
  
    K.M. Tolan has given us another book, this time in an alternate world filled with nitty-gritty hobos and fairies. There are bad guys to loathe and good guys to cheer while fantastical creatures titillate you.  A delightful book.
