Rating: 5/5
“The Shadow of Death” is a Science fiction, fantasy adventure novel written by the author R.E. Sohl. This is the first installment in The Dead End World Saga. This is the story of Matt Spike, a P.I. and is from his Case files. The story is set in 1990s. Matt Spike is not the real name of a detective. Matt’s major in college was Liberal Arts initially but later he changed it to Criminal Justice. When Matt got licensed as P.I., he found out that the reality of P.I. is different from the one he has read in books.
His secretary Naomi fell in love with a guy and got married to him, knocked up and was cheated by him. Naomi got divorced. Matt offered Naomi a job as he always has a soft spot for her. Randy is a teenager who lives in the same building where Matt’s office was located. He also get involved in the investigations even though it’s against the rules.
There are more characters in the story like Sara, a woman with whom Matt was in relationship with. Dexter Sinister (a guy who was in jail and was forced to wear a wristband that nullify the spells he could attempt) adds magic to the story.
This combo of detective story and magical fantasy is unique. Author’s narration style is what caught my attention the most to this book. Storyline is also pretty intriguing. I am for sure interested to read more books by the author.
