A Review of Desolace by Lucian Barnes

Not my usual read but I am excited to bring you the Desolace Series by Lucian Barnes.  The final book in this series is releasing this week - Thorne of Gods.  You definitely want to get these books added to your TBR List.

A serial killer is loose in Misty Hollows, Ohio and Katie Johnson is sure that her friend Julie has been abducted by this madman. As she searches for her friend, Katie finds an unexpected ally in the ghost of one of the killers victims and soon finds herself transported to a completely foreign time and place. She only hopes that she can find Julie before it's too late.

My Review

Desolace by Lucian Barnes
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

I don’t know whether to be impressed or scared at the mind of Lucian Barnes. Desolace is definitely not what you would normally find on my TBR list, However, it did incorporate many of the things I like to read about – serial killers, ghosts and teenagers.

Desolace is a great introduction to this series. We start with a serial killer on the loose in Misty Hollows. When the ghost of one of his victims contacts Katie, she and her friend Julie get too close to the truth. Then when Julie goes missing, Katie is thrust into a parallel world in search for her bestie.

While Desolace does incorporate a thrilling paranormal side, this book is not for the faint of heart. With that said I cannot wait to see where this series takes me.
