DARK TIME: MORTAL PATH BY DAKOTA BANKS

by Ryan on wordsmithonia.com

This is the first book in a series and I found it to be engaging and fast paced. Maliha Crayne is a woman burned at the stake as a witch and given immortality in exchange for working as an assassin for a demon taken out of Sumerian mythology. Truthfully I’m not sure I wouldn’t have jumped at the chance for revenge either. The way this story is told you can easily see yourself making the same deal and becoming someone you don’t recognize anymore.

However when she is given a chance to redeem herself and change her life for the better she takes it with the same impulsiveness shown in the original decision. I found her to be both sympathetic and a little dark at the same time. You may not like everything she does but you understand it and ultimately forgive her for it.

This sounds interesting – I guess I’ll give it a try. And I love the book cover – could also be a nice movie poster. Are you also a fan of urban fantasy/paranormal literature? Will you read the series?
