You have GOT to read this series!
Even if you were lucky enough to read Monstrous, originally written by David Wright and Sean Platt and loved it, even if you don't want to re-read it rewritten by a different author, do it anyway. I'm a Goner. I love these guys, especially David because he reminds me of myself. A lot! As if he's my twin, separated at birth and I just found him.
I'll admit I was hesitant about reading the revised Monstrous by Sawyer Black. But reading how pleased they were about the revision I decided to take the plunge and boy was I glad I did. Especially since Monstrous 2 and 3 came so fast following it, the last of which I am reviewing. While the language was a little rougher than I like (just a heads up for those deciding to read the series) it was somehow appropriate even as I cringed at times. I mean, after all, Henry IS a demon so he's not going to be a clean talker.
The series, without giving up any spoilers, is about a man who is murdered along with his daughter while his wife survived (I'll let you read what happens to her). He finds out his precious daughter is in Hell and he is going to do everything he needs to get revenge on those that did it. However, he finds its not as easy as he thought and you get to follow him as he tries to find the answers to the "rules" he's supposed to follow.
I'll admit I was pleasantly surprised upon reading the path his story takes him. Some very interesting twists and turns as well as other surprising developments. Sawyer Black was well chosen by the original writers and I now have a new favorite author. I hope he continues to work with David and Sean as I feel he's a good match for their writing styles (I'd LOVE to see a Boricio story written with/by him).
I'll admit to a bit of curiosity as to whether Sawyer Black is related to Henry Black. Something tells me that he may be Sawyer's long lost twin. :) Anyway this 3rd book ends the series most satisfactorily an, again, I'm glad I took the chance that Sawyer would do the series justice because he did. In spades! Get the series. You won't regret it. I know I didn't.

Captivating and Engaging
This final book was the crowning conclusion to an ever evolving saga. I look forward to reading more works from Black & Wright.
