James Markert ~ The Angels’ Share. A past winner of the IPPY Award, James Markert is also a screenwriter, a producer, and a USPTA tennis pro. He wrote and co-produced the new feature film and tennis comedy, 2nd Serve, starring Josh Hopkins from Cougar Town. James’ latest book, The Angels’ Share (HarperCollins), released last month. It is hard to pigeonhole The Angels’ Share in the sense of literary category, theme, or purpose. The author, James Markert, has a history degree and categorizes The Angels’ Share as “commercial fiction set during historical times.” The publisher classifies it as both General Fiction (Adult) and Christian/5(79). While "angel's share" is explained within the story of the McFees, "devil's cut" is not worked into the novel itself, at least not in the traditional sense. Markert explains that there is a scene within the story that is inspired by the idea of the "devil's cut", but he puts his own unique spin on it/5(14).

The Angels’ Share is a great story, set in a historical context that is rare to find. And although it is centered around a bourbon distillery, the pros and cons of alcohol consumption are not a prominent part of the storyline. I found The Angels’ Share a difficult book to set aside, and was captivated until the very end. I look forward to reading more fiction from James Markert in the future.
