Nightmarish New World.

Mirror of the Nameless - Luke Walker

WHAT'S IT ABOUT?

3 ancient gods now rule earth, spreading death and destruction in their wake. Dave is desperate to reach his daughter after her boyfriend tells him that she may be in trouble. Together they set out to find her before her actions make her a sacrifice to the gods.

WHAT I LOVED

-The non stop action that left you wanting more at the end of each chapter. The scenes with the gods were extremely entertaining and made me want to read more lovecraftian type work.

-The relationship between Dave and Tom, it felt very authentic.

-The author pulls no punches with the storyline, it explores some unsavoury human traits. Some of the scenes are spectacularly gory but it was balanced out nicely with good character development.

-The ending, I love it when an author doesn't pick the easy route.

WHAT I DIDN'T LIKE

-Nothing, it took me a couple of chapters to get into properly but this was a fantastic read.
