Review Quotes:
Put Tim Wendel's Rebel Falls on the shelf next to The Falls by Joyce Carol Oates and The Day the Falls Stood Still by Cathy Marie Buchanan. They are great Niagara novels by great Niagara-born writers. They write of its raging waters with prose so good you can almost feel the mist rising off the page. Wendel's deep research undergirds the story but does not slow it down. His novel moves swiftly, like the river that animates it.
