Great writer, but I’m afraid the story wasn’t for me.
I would like to start with the positives. Sean Mooney is a great writer, both technically and imaginatively. At no point did I feel like I was reading an indie author’s book. It was wonderfully edited, and to be honest, when I read books like this, I wonder why on earth authors like this can’t find a publisher because the quality is definitely there!!
However, story-wise. It just wasn’t there for me. Don’t get me wrong, it was imaginative and intriguing, but personally, I struggled with the book. I really did not like the main character, Thomas. I felt like I was Lestat in Interview with the Vampire ‘Whine, whine, whine! Always whining, Louis!’ I understand what the author was doing, but because of the book’s slow pace and constant complaining and self-pity, I just found myself losing interest.
I would say, if you like slow-paced thrillers with a supernatural spin, then definitely give this a go.
