Who Wants to be the Prince of Darkness

Who Wants to be The Prince of Darkness? by Michael Boatman

My rating: 4 of 5 stars


*** Possible spoilers ***

Although the writing might have benefited from a bit more editing in some places, overall it was a good, fast-paced adventure that keeps things interesting right to the end. The characters were a little flat but since the pacing was pretty well done I think readers can live with characters who might be just a little bit two dimensional. I quite enjoyed the world-building.

One problem is that the title suggests that this book will be a satire on reality television. To some extent that's true but satire seems secondary to the story and added mostly as a hook to get things going. Overall, however, if you're looking for a fairly well-written book to while away a few summer hours then I think I can recommend this one.
