BOOK BLURB:

Lucien Charon, Trey's mentor, lies in a coma in London, Trey is his only hope for survival. But the Netherworld is intent on destruction and Trey's about to face his nemesis...


REVIEW:

I absolutely loved the first novel by Steve so the second you can pretty much guarantee was devoured pretty quickly. This time the author blends Nordic myth into the equation and gives the reader a story that they’ve not only demanded but allowed the principle protagonists to grow along side an ever expanding world.

Whilst you do get what the tale says on the tin, the more unpredictable side of Trey appears at the end of the novel as he acts like a spoilt brat without listening to what others have to say, which I did feel disappointed at, however that said, it is a good book and it does keep you interested as the tale unfurls. Great stuff from Steve and I’ll look forward to the next instalment.
