This book takes you into the realm of great fantasy story telling that just isn’t found in a lot of recent stories. If you a fan of authors such as Terry Brookes; you will love this book.

Staying in tradition of great fantasy story telling the base of this book is good vs. evil. Which of course by the end of book one you are not sure who the victor will be the battle can still go either way. Each side has their own prophesy that once fulfilled it will give that side the upper hand; but no everyone is who they seem. Like many other books you will find tales of love and deception in the plot as well as ultimate sacrifices!

You will also find some elements in this book that set it apart from other fantasy books. Peter pushes the boundaries of the fantasy realm. By not just having fantasy favorites such as Fairies, Elves, and dragons but you there are also vampires, demons, and other dark creatures. 

I defiantly think that this is one indie author that has potential to go far in this gene. I can’t wait to see what Peter has in store for us in book 2.

I have to say I was blown away by this book! If I had to use one word to describe it I would have to go with INTENSE!

I had a hard time putting this book down. There are so many great characters in this book you feel like you have to know what happens to them. Lori has also given each character such depth that your hoping that good is able to best evil; so every one makes it out alive. Although if that was the case it might not be a very good read.

You will journey with main character Ashley while she tries to find herself in England; after her Aunt passed away leaving her an old pub. She is also trying to discover what happened to her missing father. She soon discovers there are things going on that are more then she might be ready for. Christian being one of them. He is a mystery for a good portion of the book; is he a good guy or a bad guy. He brings an element of mystery and strength to the book.

I was also intrigued that this book had some elements in it that you don't find in all paranormal book. It had a combination of good and evil paranormal beings. Make no mistakes though just because it's one type of paranormal creature that doesn't mean all of them are good or that all are evil. They are written just like humans, giving each character their own deaths.

Ghost Hunter is the first book in this series. I can't wait to read book 2 Demon Hunter. I would defiantly recommend this series!!

For my younger readers this book is a mature book so there are some graphic sexual situations. So keep that in mind if you can't watch R rated movies you shouldn't be reading this book either!
