The Friar's Lantern by Greg Hickey, ARC Edition







The Friar’s Lantern is written in an interactive format where the reader is able to choose the next step in which the book will advance. The genre is intertwined with a behavioral science participant who is a juror in a crime drama trial.

There is a question I would like to put in the forefront. Why is there an option if, in some instances, the conclusion is the same? The narration and descriptions are heavy and at times a little excessive but definitely gives influential visual and clear pictures of your surroundings.

Reading through this story was a little difficult for me because there were quite a few ambiguous words that I did not understand. Therefore, I was constantly looking up definitions, which put a damper in the beginning two chapters. For example, I looked up ‘extrapolation’ and it is not a word.

The book did however achieve its goal, but could place interactive options in a few better places. The content is interesting along with its concluding chapter that is convincing.

Overall, this is a good story with a nice approach to the intermingling of the court trial and I do recommend you take the time to read it. Those interested in crime dramas and behavioral science drama would love this story.

I received this book from the author in exchange for an honest review in accordance with the Federal Trade Commission Guidelines.
