I received a free copy of this book in exchange for a fair and honest review.Where to begin…  This is a fantasy horror at its finest. “The creator is the destroyer.” That line sent shivers through my bones, and it was only the first chapter! The depth of the authors writing constantly makes you think, “Wow I wonder…” and “Hmm…” it’s amazing. Couple that with the actual historical events he ties in, and you’re left questioning whether what you are reading is real! Don’t worry, take a deep breath, it’s just the work of an amazing imagination, and incredible skill.As I continued on, I then realized that all the short stories related to one another and tied into the larger main story, almost like a mystery. The author is such an incredible writer, that I picture the time and I can easily feel the emotion in the horrific situations that the characters were in. The coldness of the surrounding areas or the eeriness of the visions all added to the story immensely.As the story played out, and more things were slowly added in, I felt the author did a fantastic job at opening the readers mind to possibilities, instances and things that we as a whole don’t even think about. It leaves you questioning popular belief systems, and life in general. The writing is creepily fantastic, and I commend him on a fantastic story.It is not a quick read, because of the sheer intensity of the writing. However, I do feel that it is a book that you will read over and over again, and with each time picking up new things that you may have missed. I look forward to having a chance to read other books by this author, and I would recommend it to many of my friends.
