The Preserve by Patrick Lestewka
5.0
I almost finished the book last Friday, then I couldn’t fight the tiredness, my illness brings, enough to continue.
And I did not want to spoil the ending with mad fits of nodding dog syndrome.
What’s a day or so going to matter when the book has been waiting for me to read it since the day it was published.
I loved this book. It felt honest to me. I loved the writing style, and the hardcore nature of the subject matter. It’s a very graphic book, but that’s the awful truth of war. It also had some of the most realistic portrayals of monsters I’ve read, and I’ve read about a lot of monsters.
As a child, I always hated films and books that lied about the ugliness of death. A clean sword and bloodless clothing is just not truthful.
I can’t wait to see where this author takes me on our next journey together.
