Really well written with some really interesting characters. There's adventure, exciting action scenes and heavy occult themes - which I love. Can't wait for the sequel! Seriously, check it out

Many thanks go to Tell-Tale Publishing, Benjamin Dempsey, and Netgalley for the free copy of this book in exchange for my unbiased review. "And in a handful of dust I find fear."-T. S. Eliot I admit it; I picked this book because I really liked the cover. Sadly I had to push through the story. It had the makings of a tantalizing story, but boy did it need serious proofreading. The author has an adequate grasp of composition skills but uses them to overload. It's busy just too darn busy. I was overwhelmed with the constant plot changes. My biggest question: what was even the point of the main character having a sister? Why was that even necessary? I think if someone worked with Dempsey this book could be shaped into something quite dynamic, but there is quite a bit of extraneous story. Somebody help!

I received an ARC from Netgalley in exchange for an honest review.

I’m not really sure what to say about this book. It was a struggle to read partly because I could never really figure out what the purpose and the plot was. It jumped all over the place and I’m still trying to figure out why his sister was even in the book let alone having her own chapter. The entire book can be summed up in the description on goodreads. Literally. Aside from the descriptions of hell and it’s occupants, that’s all there is. The dialogue is also a bit of a trip. I had to reread certain parts a few times because its hard to follow. The battle scene dialogue is a write off and I just gave up.
It’s too bad because this book has potential but it needs to be drastically reworked.

Reading this one was like listening to someone talk whilst you’re drunk, I don’t know why since it’s a good book. It’s just taken me three tries to get through it. I like the sword and the snide little conversations with Luci, as well as the waspish relationship between the main two characters.

I had trouble following this book and getting into the story. I wasn't very happy with the character development and the amount of typos and poorly constructed sentences just made reading this a chore instead of a pleasure.

I liked some aspects of this story but I don't think I liked most of it. The writing was okay but I didn't really find myself enjoying it.
