I Am Pain review

 


Synopsis:

You don't know the meaning of pain. Let me teach you. 

A father returns home to find that his family has been kidnapped. He can get them back – alive – if he agrees to pay the ransom. The price is simple: the life of an innocent.

Special Agent Marcus Williams is the only one who can stop the Coercion Killer. But to do so, he must first untangle his family's dark past. A past that ties him to the infamous serial killer Francis Ackerman Jr.

Marcus knows that uniting with Francis will be dangerous. But the Coercion Killer has scarred their lives, and is poised to destroy many more. Sometimes stopping the worst of the worst is a job for the best of the bad.

My Review:

Another great thriller. In this we get to meet the notorious Ackerman Sr and learn more about his character and the Ackerman family. Again I loved Ackerman Jr in this book, always bringing some comedic relief with sarcastic comments but also just being badass and having a bit of a redemption arc. I liked seeing him and Marcus grow closer as brothers and actually properly work together. The plot itself wasn’t quite as good as the previous books but it was still enjoyable with plenty of gory murders and twists along the way. Excited for the next book!

My Rating: 8/10

The teenagers have only their secrets to protect and each other to betray. Review: A fast paced, twisty thriller that had me hooked, so much so that I devoured it in one day when I should be revising for my A Levels. I was expecting a murder mystery sort of book but the supernatural elements of this novel were something that I actually enjoyed, because the author managed to pull them off very well. The setting o

Lore review

  Synopsis: Every seven years, the Agon begins. As punishment for a past rebellion, nine Greek gods are forced to walk the earth as mortals. They are hunted by the descendants of ancient bloodlines, all eager to kill a god and seize their divine power and immortality.

The goddess offers an alliance against their mutual enemy and a way to leave the Agon behind forever.
