A Holy Bloody Day: Prologue to the Unholy Fire of Blood Trilogy ReviewA Holy Bloody Day by Malachi E. Maynard offers an original story featuring an unusual assortment of gods, demi-gods, demons, elfs etc. The story is presented in two parts. The first part revolves around a power struggle among the gods. The second part is more a coming of age story for an anointed redeemer. I found the original nature of the characters as well as the plot interesting. There are also some scenes in the novel that captured my imagination (there is a great scene where Articty fights several viper dragons).
Unfortunately, the novel is hobbled by some structural and editing issues that impeded my appreciation of the story. On the structural side, in the first section the narrative voice shifts randomly the effect of which is a very disjointed prose that is hard to follow. Throughout the novel the author relies heavily on dialogue to advance the story, which results in dialogue that feels stilted and overly explanatory. The heavy reliance on dialogue also impairs the character development. Actions occur, and relationships or emotions are stated, but there is never any view into the character's mind to reveal how the character feels which makes it difficult to emotionally engage with the characters. The editing issues are pervasive with numerous instances of usage errors, missing words, agreement issues, etc. These minor shortcomings interfered with my enjoyment of the story and render the text tedious particularly in the first section.
The novel is extremely plot and action focused with rough sketches of characters, extensive dialogue, and only a few vivid scene details. I wondered as I read it if perhaps the story might not lend itself more to a graphic novel where the emotions of characters and the scene descriptions are depicted in the images and not reflected in the text.
The second section is better written and more engaging and left me curious to see what the next installment brings. In its current state, however, this is not a novel I am comfortable recommending. I hope the author has the opportunity to rework the text and bring life to the engaging story hinted at in the novel.
