Book Feature/Book Review...... The Witchfinder by J. Todd Kingrea The realm of Deiparia teeters on the edge of a new millennium. Spiritual fervor is high. The Church of the Deiparous is worshiped & served as God. The Church’s rising star, “The Hammer of the Heiromonarch,” Malachi Thorne of the Paracletian Order, is on track for great things. So when a convicted traitor & heretic escapes Thorne’s grip, you know he won’t tolerate anything marring his perfect record. Thorne journeys across the realm in pursuit of his quarry & a freedom fighter named Traugott, confronting demons, sorcery, a witch cult out for his blood. However, these pale in comparison to the truth about Traugott. When Witchfinder and freedom fighter come face to face, Thorne is plunged into a mental & spiritual crisis. Dario Darien, Thorne’s clerk and trusted friend, uncovers evidence of a sinister cabal of resurrected evil from the Church’s forbidden past. As he searches for answers to his brother-in-law’s mysterious death, his niece & nephew become pawns in a sinister plan. Teska Vaun is a survivor, a woman with a chip on her shoulder & a unique gift that has earned her the nickname “The Ghost.” She pursues vengeance against Solomon Warner, one of Thorne’s deputies. But she didn’t expect to develop feelings for a certain Witchfinder nor discover she might be the redeemer—or ruination—of the future. The realm of Deiparia races toward a cataclysmic confrontation of war, magic, freedom & faith. Beliefs will be shattered, tenuous alliances made, & no one will be left unchanged. This book was a pleasant surprise!The world building & the character development were fantastic. It was fascinating to hear how the city was set up! Some rules or laws that were in place surprised me. I really hope this is going to be a series! Once the book got going, I was hooked, & I wasn't ready to leave this world just yet!
