What a dark, unique novel!
Kathy-Lynn Cross creates a mesmerizing mythological world in this book.
From angels and demons, to grim reapers and bridge crossers, the world the
author creates draws on several mythologies, expertly weaving them into a
stunning story! And not only is the world she creates amazing, but she brings
in compelling characters.
Alexia is a strong, rebellious teenager who has a secret.
Every night in her dreams, she battles the same creatures, fighting for both
her life and her sanity—nearly losing both repeatedly. What she doesn’t know is
that the creatures from her dreams are real, as is the danger.
Tevin is a reaper—Alexia’s reaper. When only a child, Alexia’s name came up to be reaped, and Tevin had the job to collect her soul. But as she lay in the hospital, something extraordinary happened—she looked at him and called him by name. Stunned, the reaper couldn’t bring himself to collect her soul and instead found himself protecting her.
I love how Kathy-Lynn portrays this grim reaper! So often in paranormal books, the author attempts to humanize paranormal creatures—making them more human than otherworldly. Kathy-Lynn doesn’t do this. Instead, she paints a clear picture of a creature quite inhuman, with little compassion or empathy—except when it comes to Alexia. Tevin finds himself compelled to protect her. He is the type of character I adore!!!
I loved this book from cover to cover. The story is compelling, and the characters are even more compelling! Kathy-Lynn Cross is a brilliant author and I look forward to reading more from her. I would recommend So Shall I Reap to all who love paranormal books, and aren’t afraid of things that go bump in the night.
