Blake’s Book Club | Drums Of Autumn: Chapter 1 – A Hanging In Eden | Recap & Reaction

Blake begins Chapter 1 of Drums of Autumn – A Hanging In Eden –  in Blake’s Book Club.

The first chapter is a tense dive into a scenario where Jamie and Claire face the grim reality of a public execution in America. As Gavin Hayes meets his fate, chaos erupts when another prisoner escapes, leaving Jamie and Claire to navigate loss and uncertainty in a foreign land. Despite the somber tone, hope emerges as they reconnect with old friends, gain a new companion in Ian’s dog Rollo, and plan a dangerous journey north. We explore the storytelling style, likening it to “Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire,” where life continues off the page, and delve into the evolving relationships and themes of loyalty and survival that define this pivotal chapter.
