I was skeptical at the start about how the story could possibly lull me into successfully suspending my levels of disbelief, however, with every new chapter I found myself buying each new layer of the story. I came to love the characters, their powers, and their narrative arches, all whilst enjoying the oneness of the book itself.

An enjoyable read. I didn't know anything about it when I picked this up, so I didn't expect some of the things. But this is a twisty horror book that includes some fun sci-fi elements. Definitely will pick this author up again!
