The Raven is a veritable monsters ball of action horror which doesn't let up from the first pulse pounding fight scene to the epic bloodbath of a conclusion.
Dez is a latent living in a world of mythological creatures made real thanks to a near extension-level-event caused by a group of rouge scientists who released airborne pathogens into the atmosphere - either killing or transforming the worlds human populace. However, a select few survived in their 'native' state, and that's where The Raven comes in.
The book is largely a dark and dangerous search and rescue mission with survival horror and action themes as Dez travels far and wide in search of his partner Susan who had been taken by force by a band of marauders.
Along the way Dez encounters werewolves, cannibals, a telekinetic, and a bunch of other mythical creepies; dispatching some with brutal efficiency while taking licks from others - the fighting is relentless.
The setting is intimidating and intriguing and the concept allows for further exploration of the new world inhabitants and their stories. Fingers crossed this is the start of something much larger.
