Desecrating Solomon has a unique story line that will draw you in from page one. I think there may have been lapses of time where everything else ceased to exist while I was on this adventure in West Virginia.
Solomon & Chaos are your primary characters; Solomon is a stand up dude. I like his sense of humor, his giving heart and his protective nature. Chaos is a bit on the strange side, naive and sheltered but there is still this strong willed woman beneath what she has been conditioned to be.
The subsidiary characters in this book are awesome. Between Miss Mary & Jimmy I often felt like I was in a scene with some of my older relatives. They also helped to bring some comedic relief between some pretty intense and sometimes disturbing scenes.
The story was well written, unpredictable and rich with plot twists, turns and pivots. You go from "Oh hell no" to "Are you effin' serious!" The character development is on point throughout the book; it isn't as if Solomon & Chaos just fell for each other ..you actually get to see the falling.
The background story is just as in depth and enthralling as the plot. The history of the asylum will blow your mind and the "realness" of the occult in this story is disturbing because it isn't that far fetched from reality.
Amazing book that will literally have you both scared and anxious to turn the page. It is written well and in such a way that you will easily read it from beginning to end while tuning out the real world. Can't wait to read the next one.

You had me at silence
I really dislike you at the moment Lucian. You've managed to intrigue and scare the heck out of me with this well written new story and thanks for that cliffhanger!From the first chapter to the last I was captivated. You were able to capture Silence/Chaos/Chosen innocence in a way I didn't think possible (Nice wordplay on the names by the way). She went through things that normal society would condemn, but her poisoned mind thought it was fine.Solomon had a pureness about himself as well. He suffered a big loss and basically shut himself out from the world in some ways. He still had human interaction but when Silence/Chaos/Chosen came into his life, that all changed. I did have an Omg moment about something between them that I won't mention. It shocked the heck out of me because I didn't expect it.There was this constant theme of God, family and love which you seamlessly wove into the story. I am not a very religious person and sometimes shy away from stories of that nature, but it wasn't too preachy and it worked well with the plot.Let's talk about that sick dude the Master. You know what, let's not. I'll let everyone read about him themselves.Lucian, you left me with more questions than answers and I won't say what they are as I don't want to spoil it for the rest I'll only reiterate my initial statement. I don't like you at the moment.Hurry up with the next book
