Thought you knew all there was to know about vampires and the creatures
that hunt them? Well think again, because if you haven't 'met' a Cruxim
or a Sphinx, well you have not fully 'lived' in the supernatural world.
'Cruxim' is one of the most original supernatural tales I have read
in a long, long while - and I have read a load of 'vampire, angel,
demon, fairy-filled' books. Add to this an outstanding cast of
characters, intense love-affairs, dramatic scenes, historic places, and a
story based on extremely well-researched mythological facts - and you
most certainly have the next big thing in this well-loved genre.
Karin has a beautiful and effortless way with words - her
descriptions are breathtaking, her characterisations are dimensional,
her plot is flawless. Believe me, when you delve into the magical world
she has created, you will not be disappointed - only so much in that you
will need to wait for her to finish the next book in the series!
"Amedeo is Cruxim — an
immortal dark angel who knows neither his purpose, nor his past, save
but to feed on the supernatural beings that plague the earth. When his
one weakness, the girl and novice nun Josette, is taken and turned by
his enemies, Amedeo vows never to rest until evil is expunged from his
world — even if that means killing Josette along with her vampire
brethren.
On his quest, he meets Sabine: a guardian. Half-woman,
half-lioness, she is a Sphinx who has been protecting humans from
vampires since the dawn of time. But when she fails in her task of
protecting a young boy, she is relentlessly pursued by her evil
employer, Dr. Claus Gandler, a scientist collecting a sideshow of
freaks.
A gothic paranormal that explores the beast within amid a
setting of mythology and forbidden love, Cruxim's dark world and
conflicted characters are the antithesis of the sparkly vampire genre."
Let 'Cruxim' take you an all-consuming adventure you will not want to tear yourself away from...
