![]() She is interesting though and I can sympathize with her. I can’t say I admire or identify with De la Roca. It seems to mainly serve to introduce us to the protagonist. That question is not answered in this short novella. I read on wondering who the players were and what the object of that game was. I saw only two or three typos in this self published novella, which are fewer than I would normally expect to see in a professionally edited and traditionally published book.įrom the beginning I got the impression that the lead character, De la Roca, is a reluctant token in someone else’s game. The descriptions are vivid but not graphic. The prose is succinct and fresh, almost poetic in places. Hunting for the Five may be a rare exception because of how well written it is. It is normally simplistic and, quite frankly, uninteresting. ![]() I don’t find anything admirable about such characters or anything interesting in that kind of conflict. This would normally put it on my “not my kind of thing” list because I tend to not like tales in which the protagonists use violence as their primary means of resolving conflicts. ![]() ![]() It is about a gun-toting, formerly human demon who serves as a mercenary and assassin at the pleasure of a group that are called, logically enough, angels. It starts with action and it barely takes a breath before there is more. I should first point out that this is not the type of story I normally read. ![]()
