Reviews
In Praise of Jeff Hull's Pale Morning Done:   "Hull's description of land and water will put you there, right there. But his dialogue also provides dramatic topography, exchanges in which the wrong word or right gesture looms larger for the silence or space that surrounds it, like a mountain rising abruptly from a plain; and where currents of human intercourse are trickier by far than a turnaround mixing seams at a confluence. Seriously well done, and a fine read. . ."--Fly Rod & Reel "A promised debut: rich in local color and uncontrived dialogue, with a plot that moves like a mountain stream."--Kirkus Reviews   "An impressive first novel, which balances vivid, meticulous outdoor writing with fine characterization . . . the novel stands out for its graceful, lovely evocation of the outdoors and as a chronicle of the struggle for control of a rare plot of Western wilderness."--Publishers Weekly   "The ending of Marshall Tate's tale is beautifully crafted and bittersweet . . . His second novel is hoped for. It ought to be a dandy."--The Toledo Blade (circ 176,823)   "A vivid package of emotions in strong colors . . . The moods, inspired by the waters, move magically like a stream, taking the reader through the author's love for Montana's landscape and rivers."--Montana Quarterly   "...However rich the literature of our sport, the number of popular mainstream novels in which fly fishing plays an integral part is ... well, name five if you can. More have been attempted, but it's rare you get a Ninety-two in the Shade, or anything of that caliber. Enter Jeff Hull's Pale Morning Done, a book that will be read and reviewed by more non-anglers than anything since A River Runs Through It. Or so it will be, if Hull gets a fair shake. Artfully crafted, Pale succees at what good fiction sets out to do, drawing us into the lives of poeple who matter to each other, then subjecting them to believable challenges that force them--and us--to examine the tangled webs we weave. Hull sustains our care about characters and conflicts to an end that works because things change."--Fly Rod & Reel, In Praise of Jeff Hull's "Pale Morning Done": "Hull's description of land and water will put you there, right there.

Hull understands that the things that make fishing and life meaningful are small enough to be easily missed and that they rarely fit into the straightjacket of a cliche."-- John Gierach author of Still Life with Brook Trout "With startling honesty and vigorous prose, Jeff Hull takes us into the deep, often dangerous waters of the world and of the human spirit. There's nothing like fishing to make a person think about life and death, and the flashing, reel-screaming urge to live." --- Kathleen Dean Moore, author of Riverwalking: Reflections on Moving Water "A book that will burrow into the hearts of anglers and nonanglers alike."-- Publishers Weekly It is with due caution that I compare Jeff's writing in "Streams of Consciousness" with the classic "A River Runs Through It". I don't want to make Jeff uncomfortable by comparing him to the great Norman Maclean, but I can't help it. I finished both books with that same feeling: "Wow". Now that I know Jeff a little better than I did before, I wish I could shake his hand and tell him what a terrific job he did with "Streams of Consciousness". It is a thought provoking, yet terrifically enjoyable book. I recommend it highly.--www.globalflyfisher.com, "This book is written with heart, intelligence and style.
