Genre: Horror

Format: eBook

Pages: 74

Read: 10/01/22

Synopsis:

Amara is bitten by a werewolf and forced to flee her village. Luckily, she’s found by Father Barnabas, a priest who has dedicated his life to battling supernatural threats. Soon, she’s training with him to control the Beast inside her, and to hunt down the werewolf that created her. But with the threat of a vampire invasion looming, can she save everything she’s come to love? Or will she lose her world to a monstrous threat a second time?

 Advanced Review:

"THEY’D BEEN RUNNING the whole night and still the monsters closed in. Amara led the children, two dozen of them, in their flight through the woods. They sprinted as fast as they could, exhausted by countless hours of forcing their way through the brush."


Amara, once young and full of hope, has now had to begin a life of learning to control the beast that has been born inside of her. It was not a gift she wished to receive, but on a dark night, a predatory beast gave her the bite that began her journey of saving herself from the monstrosities she now had to endure.


After traveling many nights, she finds the one that can save her and so begins a new life.


“Lightbringers are priests who dedicate themselves to battling the darkness in the world,” he explained. “We fight the supernatural, and we do so to protect the innocent from the dangers of the night.”


She learns to accept her new existence and becomes a new hope for others that are like her. Others that are lost in this new darkness. They are now together as one and stand together to fight the darknesses of the world.


They are the Wulfen.


Werewolves and vampires, an unconventional priest, a witch, finding hope when it feels as if all is lost, and a battle between what is good and what is evil, what’s not to love? 


I enjoyed reading this so much! The plot, elements, characters, and the imagery. Absolutely fantastic writing!
