Oh how much I love Tom's books! *giggles* They are borderline insane!
I've have been a huge fan of Thomas E. Sniegoski since The Fallen. And The Demonist was just as good! For some reason I was expecting an urban fantasy but this was VERY VERY D...A...R...K fantasy. :)
Besides demonic possession and exorcism, [whooooohoooo!] there is mediums, ghosts, paranormal investigation, hunted houses, a sanitarium, a crime investigation, a serial killer, missing children, an excavation, an monastery in the Carpathians, a library with ancient books on exorcism, the lesser key of Solomon, a devil's trap, elemental spirits, magick, portal to other realms..., all nested in a very terrifying world and weaved in a very twisted plot...
Such a beautiful madness!
I have never read a book quite like this one! Tom's imagery is so nightmarish awesome! Reading his descriptions it better than watching a horror movie.
but saw only darkness, darkness that pulsed and moved as if alive. Darkness that throbbed and stretched like the skin on the belly of some great beast, ready to disgorge its babies into the nightmare world.
