Abigail Dressler is faced with battling supernatural beings on behalf of the Council. She completes each task while secretly searching for more information on the whereabouts of her father and mentor, Arthur. Abigail went to Phoenix, Arizona where she met Haatim Arison. Haatim, an Indian native and Theology graduate residing in the United States finds himself in a situation where he is saved by Abigail from demons. Within a day, he learns of the existence of demons residing on Earth.
Shocked by the discovery of this being reality and not mythology or fairy tales, Haatim accompanies Abigail to the quiet and remote community of Raven’s Peak. Here Abigail is instructed by the Council to observe and determine if all is well. It is within the community that Abigail regains some fragments of memories relating to the disappearance of Arthur. It is also within the community that Haatim found his strength and how he can repay Abigail for saving his life.
Raven’s Peak, World on Fire Book 1 is a mystery and thriller fiction which will keep readers on the edge of their seats. It is captivating and will leave you wanting more. The plot is well written and will have readers wondering what is next. Personally, I look forward to reading more in the series. I am interested in finding out what other adventures Abigail is faced with and how she overcomes each.
The heroine in the story is easy to identify with, a young woman who is searching for answers to questions lodged in her mind. She has questions which seem to be evaded by those of greater influence and power, similar to a regular adolescent’s life. Haatim on the other hand is somewhat sheltered and raised to follow his faith and be fervent in doing so. Faced with reality of the existence of demons dwelling among human beings, he is faced with questions as to what to believe and where his faith stands.
The author uses imagery and various descriptive texts to appeal to readers, thus making the story more appealing. Each scenery is described in such details as to ensure that it can be easily imagined. Each character is described enough to allow for readers imagination to be explored. There is little information provided on their heights, their hair color and more detailed description is not given, thus making the novel even more interesting. I would recommend Raven’s Peak, World of Fire as a good book to read within one’s leisure time. I would give this book 3 out of 4, simply because of minor typographical and grammatical errors.
