A group of eight friends, all members of the literary society known as Ravenword, receives a special invitation from their former professor, Fichtenberg. The invitation beckons them to visit Castello Nel Buio, a mysterious castle nestled in northern Italy. However, as the members of this gothic book club set out on their journey, strange and unsettling events began to unfold around them. A mysterious stranger even issues them a warning, cautioning them against venturing to the castle, which is rumored to harbor evil and danger and has harmed many before. Amidst these foreboding circumstances, two of the Ravenword members, Motisha and T.J., deviate from the group's path, opting to visit Milan instead. This decision raises questions about what awaits them, given that the invitations were originally intended for eight. What perils lie in wait for those who venture into the castle, and what role does their professor play in this unfolding mystery? The answers to these questions can only be found by delving into the pages of the book.

I was fascinated by the castle's eerie aura of mystery as well as the warnings that the Ravenword members had received. The professor's concern over the fact that there were only six guests rather than eight added to the tension. This curiosity drove me to unravel the significance of the numbers for the professor. Additionally, the environment within Castello Nel Buio was profoundly ominous, carrying a pervasive sense of malevolence. Also, it was clear to me that something sinister dwelled in the shadows, watching and patiently awaiting the right moment to confront the members of the Ravenword. Another noteworthy aspect of the book was the author's vivid descriptions. Every event and occurrence was meticulously detailed, allowing me to immerse myself in the nightmarish adventures of the Ravenword. The author's ability to bring events to life with such vividness made me feel as if I were experiencing them firsthand. The author deserves commendation for this skill, as the story lingered in my thoughts even after I had finished reading.

I couldn't find any negative aspects in the book.

I rate Ravenword and The House of the Red Death by Justin Michael Greenway five out of five stars. The storyline flowed easily, connecting events, and the book was exceptionally well edited. I did not find any grammatical errors. The terrifying events were vividly described, making me feel like I was a member of the Ravenword, trapped in the castle and attempting to flee.

I recommend this book to lovers of gothic literature. It is filled with well-described adventures that will deeply engage readers and keep their hearts racing as the story unfolds.

The premise of the story is intriguing, drawing readers into a mysterious and foreboding world as the Ravenword members embark on their journey to Castello Nel Buio. The tension and sense of impending danger are well-established, especially with the warnings from a mysterious stranger and the professor's concern over the number of guests.

You might think that gothic literature is something of the past but this novel proves that it can be still successful and a story of this genre set in an Italian castle with echoes of Edgar Allan Poe makes me really curious. Thank you for your great review!

The story's premise is intriguing, transporting readers to a dark and ominous world as the Ravenword members travel to Castello Nel Buio. The tension and sense of imminent danger are skillfully developed, especially in light of the professor's worries about the amount of guests and the warnings from the mystery stranger.
