Talion is a refreshing mix of thriller, suspense, and fantasy. This is definitely a book for adults because there are scenes of violence, physical abuse, murder, drug abuse, and alcohol abuse. I give this book a four out of five. The only thing keeping me from giving it a five is the lack of a conclusion to the true nature of Talion.
