The Analyst #3
King of Men
( This book contains coarse language, drug and alcohol use, and sexual content.)
“Genuinely horrifying… I had to put it aside twice due to the vivid picture Wood paints with his words.”
“If you enjoy horror, paranormal themes, or even just want an action novel with masterfully crafted worldbuilding, you owe it to yourself to check this out.”
“Urgent and bleak… the story grabs you by the throat and demands your attention.”
Tom Bell is an Analyst, a federal agent who protects American citizens from the supernatural entities that become violent and out of control, and covers up every trace of their presence. His estranged ex-wife, mental illness, and persistent memories of childhood trauma serve as constant obstacles in his struggle to stay sane in the face of the impossible. Substance abuse and casual sex keep his inner demons at bay, but the real ones find more and more to prey on.
Only hours following the conclusion of BLOOD MOTHER, Tom Bell and his companions flee to Japan to exorcise the demonic entity, Aki, once and for all. Power-mad Harold Saldana pursues them with the full weight of the D.P.S.D. and his own vast underground network at his command. Tom must cross enemy territory to reach the remote village of Kurozu before Harold does, and every minute that passes, Keda is losing his grip on the godlike creature inside of him.
Outlawed by his own department, Agent Bell will be forced to forge strange alliances with otherworldly beings, and decide how much of himself he’s willing to compromise to see this perilous mission through to the end; nobody is coming back the same, if they come back at all.

I wish The book cover for paperback had cool graphics like the kindle cover.It seems the kindle covers are better for some reason. The writing is still spot on :),better than the first two. I really enjoyed how more graphic the scenes were, the author really knows how to paint a picture in your head. The metaphors used in this book are my fav out of the 2 others , awesomely done. I like the hidden greek mythology theme in the 3 books as well,very subtle!It is actually part of one of the many good metaphors in the book.

Great third installment.
Great third installment.
This installment fills in a lot of back story for the series and has at least ONE big significant surprise.wow. the author does a wonderful job tying up the story line and bringing a finality to the series. I DO however hope they will be more books in this series, as the characters and overall concept are extremely addicting.
