Isobel

by Julie Kent

With the discovery of a new vendor at the yearly Clairemont Bazaar, Isobel's life is about to change. The purchase of an antique Royal typewriter for her own writing projects will turn out to be the answer to her prayers when it starts protecting her from the hands of her abusive husband. At first, she uses the unexplainable phenomenon as an advantage, but; she will soon find out the machine has an agenda of its own as its punishments start to harm innocent people. With help from Clara, a young girl who claims to have been paralyzed by the machine, Isobel finds herself in a battle of wills between herself and the typewriter in which there is no escape until the monster forces her into a face-off where the only way to win is death or destruction.

Reviews

[Brad Carr · Rating 5 out of 5]

First off, you must read “Blood Type” before reading “Isobel: A Prequel to Blood Type.” If you read the prequel first, it’ll ruin the surprise of the first publication. Now to the review:

The story was fantastic. It contained real emotions of physical abuse that Isobel encounters, along with the feelings of worthlessness. But when Isobel becomes empowered by the paranormal forces connected to a typewriter, she is on a path to revenge. But her actions create severe consequences for others.

I highly recommend this book, and look forward to Julie Kent’s future stories.
