Book Reviews: The Devil's Utopia, Ruins of America, Iron Messiah, Prophet of Sorrow
Prophet of SorrowMr. Schimaschal delivers an outstanding fourth Darken Realm novel, Prophet of Sorrow. In a post-apocalyptic world, a war rages on. A crazed mercenary, a former priestess of evil, and two tribesmen with their own unique skills continue their journey in search of the ultimate weapon, a weapon of mass destruction from a distant time. Upon their discovery, a new foe, the product from the same distant past, brings a whole new meaning to fear and madness. The adventure never ceases in Prophet of Sorrow. From beginning to end, Mr. Schimaschal keeps the excitement on full throttle. He dove into the background and motivation for some of the supporting characters. Sometime this can cause a story to stray but Schimaschal pulls it off really well. The secondary storylines have purpose and help drive the story forward. Overall, an excellent and enjoyable story.
