Review # 2 was written on 2008-12-17 00:00:00 Harold Miller The Boy from the Basement, is a great book for all people seeking to be introduced to the "Child Called It" series". Although it is a book of abuse, it is not graphically detailed. Susan Shaw mastered the art of characterization by adding new characters to the book. Unlike other books, every few pages a new character is introduced, although these characters may not become main, I do like the style. She is also very creative. She doesn't seem to like the same settings and characters, she likes to mix it up. The setting is done beautifully, throughout the book we go through 3 different settings which I found to be very entertaining. Shaw has no down side everything she does is VERY professional. Especially the dialog between Charlie. She describes Charlie's internal and external speech, giving us a taste of Charlie and his conscience.
