Savage Gods by Peter Boland

5.0

For once in my life I am speechless. It doesn’t happen often, believe me. There is soooooooooooooo much I want, in fact need, to say about this book but I can’t! Impossible without giving spoilers away. For anyone that’s read it, you will understand.

The story works well as a standalone even though it’s the fourth in the series. Savage and Tannaz find themselves helping the police to catch a killer as the usual case being, they are over worked and under staffed. Of course who better to help them than these two. Tanaz is a computer whizz who can kick butt and Savage, well he reminds me a bit of Bruce Willis’ character in the Die Hard films.

There is plenty of action for the crime thriller junkie fans amongst us. The murders are brutal but exciting at the same time. Savage’s mental health comes more under play in this book and it brought out the mothering instinct in me, having me care more about his character than normal.

Savage Gods is a pager turning, pulse soaring, thriller of a ride. It has an explosive storyline in more ways than one. One part had me going back to re read as I couldn’t get my head around what was in front of me. Even now, I’m still in shock. Again I wish I could say so much more but Savage fans especially, would not thank me, or probably believe me, for that matter. This is one you need to read for yourself. Powerful and engrossing!

My thanks to the author for an advanced readers copy of this book. All opinions are my own and not biased in anyway.
