Necromancer
By C. Bryan Brown
Torrin McGlynne is what some might
consider a “Dirty” cop, he steals from the drug dealers, murders, and thieves
to secure his twin daughters future in the world. Soon Torrin finds himself in
a world that is unlike his everyday normal existence when his investigation
leads him straight into a magic wielding villain unlike any other.
The first half of this book starts
off a bit differently than you would expect, the main character starts off by
killing not only a drug dealer but his daughter who bears witness to his
crimes. When I picked up this novel I thought it would be full of paranormal
activity, but the magic is subtle until about sixty percent through the novel
when the real fun begins. The one question that this novel left me with was,
“Who are the good guys?” We start off with Torrin the one, who begins the novel
by murdering a little girl, then you have the partner who seems to be the only
upstanding person in this book and he soon becomes a victim to the ways of the
magical world. I always thought a novel needed a hero and a villain but C.
Bryan Brown managed to write an entire novel where you have no clue who to
actually root for, it was interesting to read though it leaves you feeling a
bit lackluster when you are done.
