5.0 out of 5 stars REVIEW: Song of the Succubus, February 10, 2001

By

This review is from: Song Of The Succubus (Paperback)

The Kind is a rare race of immortal species. This species feeds on humans but they don't feed on them without having their fun with them first. Isabelle, a member of The Kind, hasn't been the same since she saw her sister killed by a human. That human, Francis Green, fled into the priesthood after his run-in with Isabelle and her sisters. For decades, he lived in the small Irish town of Cook's Corner as the town priest, trying to forget the past until one night when he sees a music video on a televison in the pub. The woman looks just like Isabelle. His dreams begin to be haunted by Isabelle until he is forced to come to America to find her.

In America, a band that has taken the country by storm is touring. They are called Black Widow. The band makes music that even sirens were jealous of. They are led by a myserious woman named...Isabelle.

Will Francis' dreams and torment ever stop? I can tell you it won't without a few innocent bystanders getting hurt. This book takes hold of you, the reader, from the gripping details of Isabelle's eyes and the fire of her soul to the innocent holy mind of Father Francis Green having unholy thoughts about this dark angel.

This review is from: Song Of The Succubus (Paperback)

As cliched as it sounds, i could not put this book down once i started reading it. Isabelle's action were just as unpredictable to me as to were to the other characters in the book. William has a great writing style. It was amazing how so many different people were connected because of her. I also liked how he went back in time through out the story to describe certain events. At times it was a difficult to keep track of what time period i was in but it certainly made the book different and exciting. This book is full of suspense, sexuality and mystery making a really good story. And of course the ending was totally rad.

5.0 out of 5 stars A wonderful book :), April 17, 2001

This review is from: Song Of The Succubus (Paperback)

William Pusey's "Song of the succubus" is pure fun. It is exciting, funny, scary, futuristic and contemporary - all at the same time.

"Black Widow" is the biggest and hottest group in the world. Their music is great but the best thing about them is their mysterious singer, Isabelle. No one knows anything about Isabelle, except for Isabelle herself - And Francis Green, an elderly Irish priest. Francis was trying hard to forget Isabelle, until one day he sees Isabelle in one of Black Widow's videos.

Everything is coming back to him now, all those things from the past that he can no longer ignore.

This is where to book opens, and it flows beautifully to the exciting, breathtaking ending.

I enjoyed every second of reading it!
