L.M. Preston’s Bio:
L.M. Preston loved to create poetry and short-stories as a young girl. She worked in the IT field as a Techie and Educator for over sixteen years. Her passion for writing science fiction was born under the encouragement of her husband who was a Sci-Fi buff and her four kids. Her obsessive desire to write and create stories of young people who overcome unbelievable odds feeds her creation of multiple series for Middle Grade and Young Adult readers thirsty for an adventure. She loves to write while on the porch watching her kids play or when she is traveling, which is another passion that encouraged her writing.
<a href="Purgatory Reign“>Purgatory Reign Book Summary:
Something evil this way comes…sadly for it, Peter Saints awaits.
Peter Saint’s life stinks. But things are about to get much worst. First, his parents are murdered in front of him. Then another victim dies in his arms. Visions plague Peter with warnings that something wants him for a sinister cause. It desires the one thing that Peter refuses to give—his blood. Peter carries within him the one gift or curse that could unlock a secret to destroy the human race. On the run with Angel, a scruffy kid, Peter starts to unravel the mystery. It’s the one treasure the heavens sought to hide from the world. Unfortunately, when Peter finds the answer that he hopes will save the girl he loves, he opens the door to a great evil that happens to be salivating to meet him.
My Review:
If you know me at all you will understand that this isn’t my typical read so when I say I like it that praise goes a long way.
I’d highly recommend this book to any teen, even the reluctant teenage boy as it’s fast paced, action packed and altogether suspenseful. Even with the science fiction aspect of it, L M Preston has somehow made each character relate-able, even to an adult female.
Every teenager thinks their life is the worst but compared to Peter Saints, their life is hopefully just a passing moment that’s creating life long memories. After the death of his parents Peter is placed into an orphanage unlike any others. He is trained to fight and taught some strange legends and history that he does his best to ignore, not understanding their importance in what’s to come. This tragic tale follows Peter as he learns of worlds and demons we only find in our nightmares.
Though I found some aspects of it too easily resolved, this was an easy read and great for anyone with an imagination and craving for an action paced story.
