SUMMARY: Ethan Freeman, ex-Special Forces Ranger, is the sole survivor of a fiery commercial airline crash that killed his entire family. The FBI thinks he’s a mass murderer. Sam Weaver, the NTSB Chief Investigator and ex-military pilot, senses Ethan is innocent.

The BookViral Review: Originality and authenticity always make for great books and Infernal Gates by Michael Jack Webb certainly fits the bill. A supernatural thriller that whips along at a cracking pace, intelligent and immediately engaging, Webb revels in the complexity of his tale as he weaves converging plot lines together. It’s a testimony to Webb’s control over his material that narrative streams never seem to repeat or collide or, indeed, swamp one another. Writing in crisp prose and only lingering in the detail when it isn’t to the detriment of his storyline, he has a meticulous eye for detail and whilst he stays firmly within the conventional paradigms of popular supernatural fiction it hasn’t constrained his imagination. Clearly underpinned by extensive religious and historical research Infernal Gates is richly layered in a way that puts more conventional historical accounts to shame. Creating a novel that is rare and mysterious. That can be read and enjoyed but also learned from. But what really marks Infernal Gates as a novel of note is its main characters. Goodies, baddies, historical and contemporary each one comes to life and earns their place with none less than Ethan and Sam with their burgeoning friendship and pasts which are cleverly entwined.
Highly intelligent and thoroughly enjoyable novels of this calibre deserve to build an enthusiastic following and Infernal Gates is recommended without reservation.
A well-constructed and thought-provoking police procedural that maintains a prevailing sense of suspense and authenticity throughout character development and intelligent storytelling are the two ingredients that make Retribution an exceptionally good read.
Anderson doesn’t have to try to be outlandish he was born to write that way. He excels at pitch-black comedy, is a master of wicked one-liners and as with The Omnipotent the relentless self-interest of Anderson’s central character, Treyton Templeton, spreads like a particularly vehement poison ivy into every aspect of his being.
See A Witch About A Curse certainly has all the ingredients required to pique the curiosity of its target audience but whereas most YA offerings omit (relatively) complex motifs and themes in favour of building tangible relationships between good-looking clothe horses, Hussain gets the balance just right.
With its relentless pace and clever plot, Zipline makes for an appealing and compelling read but it’s not a read to be rushed with it being the progress of Michael’s plot, not the process, which makes Zipline particularly intriguing.
In a mind-bending investigation into the nature of reality, Tom Arant invites his readers to dive headlong into the proverbial rabbit hole with arguments that are intellectually rigorous and worryingly convincing!
