Impakto von Richard Calder
This started off well, with a different premise to normal, with a human being infested with demons and being pulled into a demonic world being threatened with destruction by God and his angels. The newly infested demon and his controller are set up to kill their demonic superparents, and take their place as the new progenitors of the demon space[return][return]Got about half way through and I flagged, skimming the rest of the way. Agree with other Amazon reviews in that it was overwritten and if only it had been streamlined a little, then it would have perked up and been easier to complete… (mehr)
Strange tale set in a near future fashion mileuix, with 'living' dresses and a journalist who is obsessed with a model. Somewhat over-wrought.
I really didn't like this much. There were some things about it which were quite engaging - the whole demon-world/earth/heaven thing worked quite well. The language however was far far far too flowery for my taste, and to be honest I found the whole thing a bit too blatantly objectifying of women - whenever it had anything to do with them it made me cringe. Definitely not one for the keep pile.
Overblown story about the creation of artificial life (the Lilim) by a mad scientist in a now quarantined London.His son gets swept away by them like Peter Pan...
