Voyage of the Damned by Frances White

5.0

The only disappointment Voyage of the Damned caused me is how long I waited until I read what ended up being one of my favorite books of this year. I promise you that I’m not exaggerating when I say that I was totally blown away by this book. Everything about it, from the prose, to the fascinating world, to Dee. Oh my god, where should I even begin with Dee. I loved him so much. I think from the first times I heard him speak I was like “Yep, that’s my type of guy!” And as the story progressed I was like, “if anyone of you fu***** even touch him I’ll *#$!” 
Speaking of the fu***** I really appreciated how vast and diverse the cast of characters where. They weren’t there just for the sake of it but everyone of them felt so unique that I knew who was talking without even needing a dialogue tag. They were all incredibly interesting in their own right and it was delightful peacing together their back stories. 
The cover promised me murder and magic and Goddess it has delivered and then some. Voyage of the Damned is an incredible debut by Frances White and if that’s how she kicks off her career I can imagine where she’ll be in 10, 20, or 30 years from now.
