All These Subtle Deceits by C.S. Humble
5.0
I will admit: in the beginning, I judged a book by its cover. I saw it and I went, "Hot damn, that looks fun." And that was the end of my inquisition. I justified the purchase as supporting my publisher, and waited for the book to come.
This is a fun story about an exorcist who helps a woman as she comes into contact with the spiritual world in Black Wells. The prose is witty and strong. The characters, regardless of their length of stay on the page, pop off the page and have such life to them.
I have a saying when it comes to twists: I don't get fooled often, but I like it when I trip up. This story did just that. I sat there for a second, reeling before I hit solid ground on the discovery. Sometimes, the subtle deceits are fun to come across.
