"A riveting exploration of forgiveness and redemption. Baldwin is a truthsayer about the human experience."
--Ron Chapman, Host and Co-Producer. Southwest Coffeehouse, KUNM Radio (NPR)
“…
a powerful, gut-gripping novel… an understated, intimate narrative. It dips into the rawest of emotions through a powerful blend of imagination and fact woven
tightly together by the author… Excellent! A novel worth a second or even a third reading.”
--Joyce Metzger, Mejmetzerpoetryreviews.com, ibbetsonstreepressupdate.com, motherofallpoetrygroups.com, butchershoppress.com, theblacklistedjournalist.com, rattle.com
“
Embracing the strengths and foibles of what it means to be human, THE WATER THIEF is very strongly recommended reading as a touching and memorable story about the transcendental power of forgiveness over spiritual despair. “
--Midwest Book Review
“
A breathtaking quest… THE WATER THIEF left me reeling and hardly able to catch my breath. A brave and bold accomplishment.”
--Leslee Breene, author of FOXFIRE
“…
an enthralling adventure that hooks you quickly and keeps you turning pages with [this] realistic portrayal of characters and emotion.”
--Greeley (CO) Tribune
“
Baldwin is adept at building tensions… [He] has an intense and unusually engaging style… One certainly thinks ‘film’ when gliding though green woods-lined channels and struggling on stormy waters with [protagonist] Jake Woods.“
--Highlands Ranch Herald (CO)
“
Not only is THE WATER THIEF emotionally gut wrenching, it is also a story of man against nature. Jake will have to face his demons one way or the other. If there is one theme that runs through the book, it is forgiveness. We have to forgive others and ourselves for things that happen in our lives.”
--BVS Reviews
THE WATER THIEF was a November-December 2002 Small Press Review selection.
