is their review of 'The Devil's Creature in the City of the Dead' by R
H Stewart
Published by Barny
Books - RRP £5.99 - ISBN 9781906542177Reviewed by Kate Tarrant
Initially I thought it was going to take a
while for me to get into this book - the rich, descriptive language, and its
very dark opening scene with flash backs to the past, instantly showed me that
this was a book that needed my undivided attention. Nevertheless, this is not a
criticism - this fantastic book makes you a compulsive reader - from the outset
it promises to capture its readers, swallowing them up in an imaginary world
where good and evil battle it out.
Set in Glasgow, the
story is about Mhairi, a 14-year-old witch, who together with her
black cat called Jet and her human companion Dougie, set out on a quest against
a vampire, released into the world by the great and evil power Lord Antoninus.
Along the way the team solve murders that are taking place all over the
Necropolis (also called City of the Dead) as well as meeting ghosts and
ghouls. This is a richly imaginative and compelling fantasy story - a
truly original horror tale that will have your spine tingling!
