The Sacrifice Box: Martin Stewart

I bought this book based on a recommendation on Twitter and although I did enjoy it and would recommend it to you guys, in my opinion this book has it’s ups and downs.

The books strengths are its strong characterisation and interesting concept. The characters were really well designed and fleshed out, from angry Lamb to crazy Arkle and the book starts out with a really interesting plot idea, but sadly for me, it just didn’t quite live up to the hype.

The book's opening had this really ominous feeling and loads of interesting questions, like who opened the box and why are dead animals coming back to life?  But, when I got the answer I found it a bit anti-climactic and not really as exciting as I had hoped.

However, I would rate this book a solid 8/10 because it was such an interesting plot, the initial suspense was great and sense of foreboding was genuinely creepy.
