Faceless Fury is not for the weak at heart. It is a dark and chilling ride that will keep you up at night. For those that love a good scary read with the history of the Salem witch hunts, this book is for you. George William Frawley weaves a dark tale that will keep you on the edge of your seat.

I had met the author during the Christmas holidays at a local bookstore and after speaking with him I purchased a copy for my wife. I just got around to reading it and wished I wouldn't have waited so long. The story is amazing with how it is described and moves along so quickly. Definitely a quick read as you don't want to put it down. Most of this is set in Boulder, CO and being a Denver native it is easy to picture the area he is writing about. Truly terrifying, suspenseful and bewitching. I would love to see a movie version as the script has already been written as the book itself. Definitely recommended.

I've just finished the book - WOW! Mr. Frawley's wordsmithing is definitely on a higher level than most. The sceens are very descriptive, bringing the story to life. The history is well researched and knowledgable. All of this comes together to create a story so believable that the reader finds real emotions stirring within them. Well done!

I don't usually read horror. I'm glad I made the exception for this one. The characters and story were well established and believable. The author did not shy away from taking things to the limit. His use of the Salem history added a touch of reality to the story. It has an ending you could not predict.

A diabolical tale that is both suspensful and bewitching.
The plot thickens with it's twists and turns leaving the reader wanting more.

From the moment I picked up this book it made my heart race and it became almost impossible to put down. "Faceless Fury" is sure to transport you from your safe surroundings into a world of sorcery, mayhem and pure evil. This author's undeniable artistic talent is constantly demonstrated as he effortlessly weaves both terror and beauty into every chapter. In this book you will find characters that will surprise you, disgust you and ultimately make you believe in magic. The perfect read for the Halloween Season or just anytime you're in the mood for a really good scare!

This book was well written and executed. The first time I read it I couldn't put it down. As far as reading it again goes, it has great re-readability

I had the luck of actually meeting Mr. Frawley at a local bookstore, and after talking with him for awhile I decided to purchase a copy. I started the book friday evening and finished it sunday evening. I was absululty entranced by this book. Mr Frawley has a gift, a voice if you will that few posses and even less use it to effect to which Mr. Frawley does here. I cant wait for the next installment.

My employer loaned me this book, not with the recommendation that it was a stellar read, but with an expression that clearly told me that she regretted wasting the $20 for it.

I could not get past the first 10 pages. The dialog is stilted, formulaic, and unrealistic, and the author seems to have mistaken utter confusion for mystery. Cliches run rampant, the plot is rushed, and little time is given for character insight.

Now, perhaps you are thinking I didn't give the author time to develop plot and characters. However, a good author should be able to portray why a set of parents would appear loving though upset on page one, then suddenly become cruel and indifferent on page three. Honestly, I don't think I rushed my judgment. The author rushed his characters.

Also, explain to me why his first book, Racing Winds, has nine reviews, three of which were submitted by the same person, two submitted by people with the same last name and from the same location. And all five of these reviews list the book as being five star material.

Join a writing group, attend some workshops, Mr. Frawley. There are excellent resources in your area.

Although the idea was great, I don't think the execution was all that great. It took me several months to get through it. The first hundred pages were not engaging. It just wasn't what I was expecting.
