The Paladin Sequence by Lance Tuck

     My love for all things frightening was satiated with these books!  It's unlike anything I've read in a long while and I was more than honored to be a part of a feedback team!  This series is about many people, but one in particular.  His name is Matthew Paladin.  A man with many demons, but also does his best to fight them!  He's an Exorcist and works for The Church but there's nothing conventional concerning their methods.  Dressed like Neo and the crew of Matrix, he's loaded down with weapons of all sorts... blessed by the Pope himself!  This story is a wild ride! On to the reviews!
And don't miss out on the instructions for an epic giveaway of the first two books of the Paladin Sequence!      The summary for Devil's Garden is as follows:
The Paladin Sequence is an introduction to a world on the brink of apocalypse. Told through the eyes of Matthew Paladin, an exorcist who knows all too well what it means to be a thrall to an infernal force, the Paladin Sequence is a retrospective account of the events that have led Matthew to the end of what seems to be mankind’s best hope for salvation....
     This story is amazing because you don't just get to know why things are happening but how. As the reader you're introduced to key players that bring to you a visual, sometimes bloody, how Paladin is to battle against Original Evil.

     Tuck carefully developed histories and personalities that are both tortured and full of faith to do what they're required to do to help all that are lost and ignorant to what's happening around them.  I personally loved Gerald Ironblood's story.  Not only did he go up against The demon and fail; he sulked then came back like Rocky Balboa and blew it away... for a while.  Paladin's story is deeper and as you travel across and around the world, you find out just how much research and planning went into this book.  

​     I was amazed, grossed out and encouraged to read until it ended...  Or did it?
