A review by whattamess
The Prophet by Amanda Stevens

3.0

Buddy Read with the MacHalos

I'm left with a weird feeling about the author's writing with this book. It's been a few years since I've read the first two books, and I don't remember them being so "incomplete" with the writing style.

The thing I like about Amanda Stevens books is that they are a bit different. The whole theme of a graveyard restorer being able to see ghosts is so appealing. Plenty of opportunities for suspense and creepiness. The Prophet had all these, but every time things started getting good it just....ended. A large chunk of the book was filled with page fillers, and then suddenly it stopped. And that ending? The only word I can find to best describe it is "limp".

I think this book would be fantastic with a rewrite. Amanda Stevens needs to put more "care" into her work she publishes.
