MY REVIEW:
In a little break from the norm, I picked up The Scarlett Curse: Sacred Blade of
Profanity Book One by Toneye Eyenot, to read for my own pleasure rather
than a review submission. This book is published by the wonderful people at J
Ellington Ashton Press.
I picked this up for a read of my own for a couple of
reasons. I have seen quite a buzz in the social media scene about this man’s
writing and also Book Two has just come out so I wanted to have a go at this so
I can catch up with the story.
The first surprise I got was the fact that this is a
fantasy story and not pure horror. My bad. I automatically thought that it
would be horror given the circles Mr Eyenot travels in. Nevertheless, I started
it, so I will finish it.
This is what I thought.
Scarlett holds the key to many a person’s end. She
currently possesses the Sacred Blade of Profanity. Or does it possess her?
This ancient blade possesses whoever holds it and it
commands them to do its bloody deeds. When Scarlett loses control of the blade,
young Dera picks it up and is instantly overcome with bloodlust.
Scarlet must now try to rectify things while both of them
need to try and outrun Joshua, a man with his own troubles that he believes
getting hold of Dera can fix.
