The thrills, suspense and danger are guaranteed to grab the attention and stretch imaginations to the limit."
  • ""En Whitby, un pequeño pueblo de la Inglaterra del siglo xviii, la magia negra y la brujería tienen un poderoso aliado; Demurral, el hechicero de las sombras. Movido por la ambitión y sin ningún tipo de escrúpulos, el párroco Demurral está urdiendo un plan para convertirse en el mayor hechicero del universo.

  • "In Whitby, a small town in England in the eighteenth century, black magic and witchcraft have a powerful ally; Demurral, the sorcerer of shadows. Driven by ambition and without any kind of scruples, the vicar Demurral is plotting to become the greatest sorcerer in the universe. This must be done with a peculiar object, a "Keruvim", but Kate, Thomas and Raphah, plus an archangel, stand in his way-- Google translation of Spanish précis, and Wikipedia."

  • "An apocalyptic battle between good and evil is vigorously, violently fought in British author G.P. Taylor's suspenseful, action-packed fantasy. The story, set in the 1700s on the Yorkshire coastline, revolves around Vicar Obadiah Demurral, a corrupt-but-inept, dead-conjuring "shadowmancer" who desires to control the universe by overthrowing God, or Riathamus. When two hard-luck near-orphans, (13-year-old Thomas Barrick, a bitter enemy of Demurral, and his troubled friend Kate Coglund) band together with a young African stranger named Raphah, they spend the rest of the book trying to stop the wicked Vicar as if their very souls are at stake ... they are. Along the way, the three youths meet an enormous cast of friends and foes, some agents of Riathamus, others of Satan (Pyratheon), and some godless (but not for long) smugglers like Jacob Crane. Readers who love fanciful storybook characters will find mermaidlike Seloth, smelly hobs, leg-dragging servants, goodhearted whores, and benevolent boggles. Age-old superstitions abound, though old magic and witchcraft are clearly denounced here as the work of the devil. Indeed, the author, an English vicar himself, tells a very Christian story and his often deliciously dramatic adventure lapses into stiffly presented glowing-halo Touched by an Angel moments(readers will be lured into the Enchanted Forest, but tricked into Sunday school). Nonetheless, Shadowmancer, the first of a series, is a pageturner bursting with magic and myth, and will appeal to fantasy lovers who don't mind the Bible mixed in with their boggles. (Ages 11 and older)."
