A review by sjj169
Sons Of The Devil #1 by Toni Infante, Brian Buccellato
3.0
3.5 stars. I'm hoping this series turns out as good as it looks.
*May go sorta spoilery* Depending on how picky you are.
This book is mostly groundwork for what is to come. Or at least what I hope is to come.
It starts off with a baby with two different colored eyes being shuffled around and people around it dying.
Then you meet Travis, he is a grown up with those eyes...*enter in some creepy music.*
He is met by a former foster brother who is digging into Travis's past because of how badly he treated Travis. He finds a old picture of a guy that resembles Travis. (Lower right corner)
Dead ringer for this guy!
Travis has some issues. He beats up his boss because he won't let Travis come and go as he pleases and gets sentenced to some anger management.
Travis thinks the whole thing including his weirdo past is bull. Then the foster brother ends up dead with someone knocking Travis over the head after calling him the "Chosen One"...
One thing that bugged me right around here is Travis. He just jumps into everything feet first without a thought in his brain. I hope he smartens up in the later editions. For example: Girlfriend acting withdrawn? Just move in with her.
I can't wait to read some more of this story. I'm hoping it keeps up the creepy noirish vibe. There is a big old cliffhanger at the end of this one that will have you wanting more.

I'm highlighting this review because none of my friends had read it and I liked the review. Plus that avatar the reviewer uses is pretty cool. Nuff said.
