Book Review of The Sin Collector: Thomas by Jessica Fortunato
The Sin Collector: Thomas is a novella within the Sin Collector series by Jessica Fortunato. Thomas gives insight into the life of Thomas, who was a quiet character in the first Sin Collector novel. This story is quick and pulls you along many twists and turns as you discover new vendettas and lost love. It’s an emotional story with bits of humor to get you through.
The Details
The Sin Collector: Thomas is a novella in the Sin Collector series, a contemporary paranormal series that explores the secret world of the sin collectors, which absorb humans’ sins so that we can rest in peace when we die. While the first Sin Collector novel was written in Lily’s first person POV, Thomas uses third person to explore Fortunato’s world a bit further.
Thomas appeared in a minor role in the Sin Collector series, and in the first book, he never gave much light as to where he’d come from. His secretive nature sparked this novella, which explains exactly what he endured to become so secretive and withholding. All in all, it’s an action-packed story with a few surprises thrown in for good measure.
Though I wouldn’t mind immortality, I sure wouldn’t want to absorb the sins of others. The weight of the sin collectors’ duty is a heavy burden to bear, and that shapes these characters in curious ways. The characters were interesting, and though I couldn’t relate to Thomas once or twice, the rest supported the story even if he didn’t.
Paranormal fantasy fans and urban fantasy fans will probably enjoy this story and the whole Sin Collector series, as will anyone who likes a bit of historical fiction thrown in with their magical creatures.
