Product Description

Bookmunch Online Book Reviews- June 2002
This reads like an unholy (a very definately unholy) amalgam of Stephen King and that show American Gothic whic hran a few years ago.

Product Description
In the wake of the apocalyptic events in Preacher: War in the Sun, the Reverend Jesse Custer's quest to find an absentee God takes an unexpected detour, one which leads down a backwater road to the godforsaken town of Salvation! Separated from gun-toting girlfriend Tulip and Irish vampire Cassidy, Custer's looking to lose himself for a while, take stock of a life that has been torn apart. But there's no rest for the good or the wicked in Salvation, a small town with a lot of very big secrets, as Custer soon discovers.

5.0 out of 5 stars Absolutely whatever you want it to be..., 19 Jun 2000
By A Customer
This is the seventh installment of Garth Ennis's simply breathtaking work that is Preacher. Now although it is not my favourite of his Preacher installment (Proud Americans still being my favourite contribution), it still captivates me in a way that no other book will. This is without a doubt the most mind-boggling of the series. Just when you think that Garth Ennis couldn't think of any more politically incorrect scenes to come up with, he dreams up the deranged and sexually depraved character that is Odin Quincannon. Quincannon is one of the strangest creations of all time as far as I'm concerned. And his kinky, nazi of a lawyer, Miss Oatlash, compliments the meat-man perfectly. Now the story line involving Jesse's quest to search down God does tail off slightly in this book, concentrating more on Jesse's relationship with his mother, who until this time he thought had been killed by Jody (Preacher: Until the end of the World). It demostrates how not everything in your blood, means you are pre-destined for anything, given that Jesse and Christina are the complete opposite of their family members. I thought that the sickest thing I had seen previously was the reference to paedophilic ways by Jesus de Sade (again Until the end of the World), but the scene involving Quincannon and his female creation made from various animal carcasses simply stunned me beyond belief. But in a good way. Because in Ennis we have an author who is not afraid to say what he think's and most of what he thinks is deranged to say the very least... a man of my own heart. If you have never read any Preacher books, I strongly recommend that you pick one up now. And believe me, by the time you have come up to the installment that is Salvation, you will never look at the world in the same way again...

5.0 out of 5 stars Preacher Perfect, 6 April 2000
By A Customer
Jesse Custer is back! Ennis and Dillon again come up tops with the next part of the Preacher saga. Feeling betrayed by Cass and Tulip, Jesse wanders the country looking for a place to settle until he drifts into the small town of Salvation, Texas. It isnt long until his life takes another turn for the surreal and he ends up becoming sheriff. Gart Ennis never fails to amuse with his story of Jesse Custer which is, as ever beautifully illustrated by Steve Dillon. Thought provoking and amusing. Fans of the series will not be dissapointed with the lastest addition. It may not be everyones cup of tea with its frank use of language and lashings of and but for me there is no better comic.

4.0 out of 5 stars Ennis proving why he is the master of his game, 26 Mar 2000
By D. Brewer "dark_mercenary" (Dorset, England) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
This review is from: Salvation (Preacher) (Paperback)
After reading the previous six novels in the Preacher series, I had a feeling that this might not live up to it's previous expectations. I should have known better! Although not the strongest of the Preacher collection,(my personal favouite is Proud Americans)it shows the depth that Garth Ennis can go in to, given the opportunity. This particular installment doesn't touch too much on the main story at hand,(the main story being Jesse's continued search for God) but it is still charming and thought provoking. He also gives an insight in to his belief of what middle America looks like in his eyes. Sometimes scary, but most of the time, shocking. The story might be thought of as weak by many Preacher fans, but I don't suscribe to that opinion. Call me biased if you will, but I personally feel that I can read any work by Ennis, and come away feeling renewed.(Fans of Ennis should try Unknown Soldier and his current 12 piece issue of The Punisher, in which he is reunited with artist Steve Dillon). The characters that Ennis provides in Salvation are strange to say the least. Most notably Odin Quincannon. I won't continue to give away the story, but I will say that if you like Preacher, or graphic novels in general then you should love this. I would recommend it to anyone, no matter who they are. Enjoy.

3.0 out of 5 stars Still better than most, but not up to usual Ennis standards.
Regular readers of Preacher will be fully aware of the genius at work here. Garth Ennis has created a work of art which surpasses most of the so-called contemporary literature... Read more
