Wormwood by D.H. Nevins Review

Wormwood
By D.H. Nevins


5/5 Stars

I received this book from the author in exchange for an honest review through Voracious Readers Only.

I found this book to be quite interesting with enough suspense to keep me turning the pages. While Wormwood is based on the Christian views of the end of days it is not over bearing or in your face with Christianity and/or religion. I think D.H. Nevins had the perfect balance of religious references for the intended purpose of the novel.

Kali is the main protagonist. She is very likeable and well developed. Her only flaw, in my opinion, was her weakness towards Tiamat in all situations. No matter what horrible thing he did to her, or in front of her, she was too much in love with him to stop him. Her greatest strength was her determination to survive despite everything. Tiamat is the other protagonist in this story . He is half angel  and half human. While his character is well developed I didn't find him likeable, in fact I found him to be simply awful. However, once his motives became  clear I found myself sympathetic of his past and rooting for his future.

This book was a rollercoaster in the best way with lots of twists, turns and excitement. I really enjoyed this book and felt the set up for the next book was great and left me excited to read it. I will definitely be reading the second book, Angel Of Shadow, in the near future.
