4.0 out of 5 stars This fantasy-horror novel is hard to put down!, September 15, 1998
This review is from: The Face of Time (Paperback)
FACE OF EVIL tells a story of horror and suspense that builds steadily to its terrifying end. The people of the town of Thorgill are beseiged by a serial killer who mutilates his victims. Two detectives from Scotland Yard are called in to help the local police with the investigation, but these crimes seem to defy modern police methods. To make matters worse, the townspeople are less than cooperative. This problem, they say, requires a magical solution from practitioners of the "Old Religion." FACE OF EVIL is some of Bacon-Smith's very best writing. Readers of her "Deamon" novels should be aware that this novel does not take place in the same setting, and does not have the light humorous touch of EYES OF THE EMPRESS. FACE OF EVIL fits squarely in the fantasy/horrer genre. Like her "Daemon" novels, this work includes well-researched depictions of ancient myth and magic. Readers of both fantasy/horrer and mystery should be well-satisfied by this novel, and will find that Bacon-Smith has something new to bring to those genres.
