Great review, thank you. I rarely read book on horror but if its supernatural-related, I'd be interested. I cant wait to read book 1 then this book 2 before making my opinion. Hope it's really interesting.

Great review (thought I did skip those two paragraphs). I downloaded both book 1 and 2 in Sept, but haven't gotten around to reading either one, yet. Thanks for reminding me to get to them ASAP.

I did enjoy a sample of hell holes. After reading your review I think I will read Hell holes1 and 2.

Demons, magic, paranormals...not my favourite reading themes. However, from the review, the plot of Hell Holes 2 appears to be very imaginatively crafted by Donald Firesmith.

Very good review. But I have of late lost interest in horror stories.

Thanks for the review. I do like supernatural fiction, but I think I'd have to start with the first book like you suggest.

This book and the first book in the series were a great read. It was hard to put them down for a minute. Good characters and plot. An alternate look at a first contact situation. Can't wait till the next in the series.

Reading the review of this book reminds me of Supernatural with all the magic, demon, hell... I might pass this book when I first see the cheap cover but the plot seems interesting though.

I agree with applauding the professional respect to the woman in this story. I'm going to have to start paying more attention to this element in other stories. I'm glad you mentioned the benefit of reading the first book first. I have both books so that is exactly what I'll do. Sounds like it's going to be a great ride. Thanks for your insightful review.
