Sarah England (1)

This is the stuff nightmares are made of! Dennis Wheatley eat your heart out. A tale of witchcraft and sorcery set in Bavaria and Yorkshire, revolving around a legacy which is passed on between the female members of a family. Poppets, demonic symbols and satanic rituals set the scene!

This is such a dark and disturbing story. It’s Sarah England’s scariest book yet. It’s definitely one to read with the light on or, even better, during daylight hours! Some of the characters frightened the life out of me. It’s well written with a macabre but gripping plot line. I have to admit that at times I found it a little too unsettling as some of the scenes are quite disquieting and intense. But, all in all, a chilling and blood curdling page turner which fans of this genre should love. A word of warning, though, it’s certainly not for the faint hearted. It will have you quaking in your boots! 😈… (plus d'informations)

Set in the Forest of Dean in the creepy (fictional) village of Monkspike, a dark and evil force has been unleashed in the form of a malevolent monk who wants revenge for some terrible events which occurred 900 years ago.

When I first started reading this book I felt a little confused as I didn’t really understand what was going on. Then it became clear about halfway through the story and was quite the rollercoaster from then on. It had me on the edge of my seat. It’s definitely a scary and nail biting tale. Burdo the monk is the stuff of nightmares, the author describes him so vividly! 😱 Some of the themes did remind me a little of Barbara Erskine’s work and could give Dennis Wheatley a good run for his money.

Atmospherically written with some fascinating characters, the air of menace and foreboding is alway apparent and kept me on my toes. I always know I’m in for a chilling and hair raising ride when reading a Sarah England book and this one is no exception. Disturbingly enjoyable - best read with the lights on! 👀😈😈… (plus d'informations)
