Summary: His first Book? Are you sure?
Review: I got this book not expecting to even get to it in my stack of "you gotta read this". When I got home I looked at the first page of the first chapter and I was hooked. The others would just need to stay on the night stand for a few more days.

I read this book in record time. I read it faster than most of the "best sellers" I have read and enjoyed it even more. I want to loan my book out to everyone I know so they can enjoy it as much as I did, but I am afraid I'll never get it back!

The plot line is excellent, the character development is great and Bufkin does a masterful job of making you turn the page to see what happens next! If you like action, suspense, evil villians, unsuspecting heros, or deeper truths, its all rapped up in Bufkin's first literary work. All in all a great read for anyone, anytime. I look forward to more!

Summary: The battle of one man against his demons
Review: This book represents an exciting tale of one man's journey to concur several demons in his life. Greg, the protagonist, is being hunted by an evil being with god-like abilities. The book takes us on Greg's journey to destroy the being. Greg teams up with several other characters in the book to battle the evil demon, and Greg tells them the story of the monster's creation throughout the book via flashbacks. On another level, the book deals with Greg's inner demon. Greg must come to understand that he is not the one responsible for this evil being, but must surrender his guilt to a higher power.

The book provides a great read. I found the plot believable and consistent throughout the book; however, I did see a couple areas of improvement. I found two of the characters lacked that vibrant spark which seems to make them come alive in other books. I also found the constant flashbacks a bit dizzying at times. Nonetheless, this is an excellent work for the author's first book.
