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.
