Reviewed in the United States on November 5, 2014
Oak Eternal is a beautifully crafted tale of the oldest house in the neighborhood and it's dark history back to the days of pioneers settling St. Paul, Minnesota. John Ploetz is a clever writer, creating flawed characters mired in their human flaws and the difficulties of their worlds.

Oak Eternal will give you pause to re-think what you believe to be real. You'll never look at that old house down the block in same way again. You may also watch that neighbor a little more closely as he walks the neighborhood in the evening.

5.0 out of 5 stars A Great Mystery
Reviewed in the United States on November 24, 2014
Once I started reading this book, I couldn't put it down. It is a fascinating read and has the great addition of interwoven stories within stories. The writing is excellent with believable, well described characters who are brought to life through exquisite detail.
I cannot recommend this book enough.
