A Hawaiian judge is down in the dumps because he finds no hope after all. It is a sad state of affairs for a nobleman who has just lost his pregnant wife. With a heavy heart, he is in search of comfort. And since death is his biggest fear, he is determined to take a path to immortality. In Sorcerer's Prayer by Luigi N. Spring, you will discover how that pursuit knocks him sideways.

Luigi clearly articulates the topic of a sorcerer's prayer and the precious blood used to acquire magical powers. The subject is covered adequately in a balanced fashion. The descriptive approach is spectacular. Some of the scenes, like the attendance of the Hawaiian secret society meeting, are breathtaking. I believe the dialogue used also brings the story to life.

Luigi portrays that leadership is a back-breaking task that requires sacrifices. I was astounded to see the extent to which power and ideology can influence the masses. It was hard to comprehend how one judge chooses to use religion as a means to take control of a fountain and the source of vitality it holds. He has complete disregard for his followers. It is all fueled by personal interests. It reminded me of how leaders in society are using our tenets to their advantage.

Spring managed to showcase the culture of the Hawaiian Kingdom. For instance, there is a moment when the monarch grabbed a torch from a wall holder when they visited a cavern with Keoni. Luigi describes the moment in a brilliant way. The Hawaiian people were fond of making torches from a two-foot piece of bamboo, with one end wrapped thickly with a tapa cloth soaked in kukui nut oil, and it would burn for hours with little smoke. There is also a remarkable moment when they sail to Hawaii's fifth-largest island, Molokaʻi. Luigi completes the book with a suspenseful outline, which tempts the reader to seek a continuation from another book in the sequel.

My rating is a 4 out of 4 stars. Sorcerers' Prayer (book 2.1 - Precious Blood) doesn't conform to the conventions of one genre. It spreads its uniqueness across the supernatural, suspense, thriller, and humor genres. The story is mysterious and unravels thematically. Even though some chapters build up slowly, the events flow smoothly. I only discovered a few insignificant errors. There's the use of cursing words and some sexual scenes, and hence I'd recommend mature readers for this one. Spare some time to delve into a thrilling reading experience.

I was pulled to the book by the interesting title. It's unfortunate that the book has curse words and sexual scenes. Due to that, I will pass but thanks for an outstanding review.

The process of making torches makes the culture of the Hawaiian Kingdom different.
