Oh I wanted to enjoy this which is why I kept reading but it really missed the mark for me, which was disappointing after reading some glowing reviews. Ah well, can't win them all.

A Taker of Morrows is an intense, page-turning thrill ride. Definitely wish I would have been able to read this sooner! I'm a huge fan on thrillers, though not necessarily supernatural but it was still an entertaining read that I will recommend to my friends and followers.

Review: A TAKER OF MORROWS by Stephen Paul Sayers

Exciting, intriguing, and riproaring supernatural thriller, the debut novel from this author, A TAKER OF MORROWS (and its sequel, THE SOUL DWELLER) is a novel that will keep you up late or miss appointments and phone calls just to finish it. RG Granville, who lost his father early on to a senseless accident, one evening discovers a man in his house, who informs him that he will die in 24 hours, and there is nothing RG can do to circumvent it. But RG, who immediately goes through all the grief symptoms, perhaps more especially because he will be leaving his wife and unborn child, determines there must be an answer. There is, but it certainly was way beyond what RG could have expected, and he is propelled into an entirely new life path. No more staid Boston University research professor; now RG and his wife Kacey are on a new purpose, one that serves Life in more than just our earthbound dimension.

Interesting.
What would you do if you learned you only had 24 hours to live? Would you visit friends and family? Would you gain as much knowledge as you possibly could? Or would you do something dangerous? Maybe like upsetting the balance between Good and Evil... RG Granville is visited by a strange individual known as Morrow who tells him his life is about to end. Evil jumpers between the worlds are vengeance driven and after his earthly soul. Evil is unleashed and RG is now in a race against time to save his family and maybe even himself.
The book was very well written. The story, other parts of it we're not new ideas, was very unique. The characters are believable and relatable. All in all it was very good book.
I did enjoy this book but I have to admit the beginning is a little slow. It's difficult to jump right in and run with but it ends up picking up steam rather quickly.
I would recommend this book to anyone who enjoys dark sci-fi & paranormal reads.

I had a hard time following this book. There were so many characters and long backstories that I felt it was distracting.

Thank you to NetGalley for providing me with a copy of this book in exchange for an honest review.
I thoroughly enjoyed this book; it was well-written, flowed well, and it kept me engaged. I also loved that it took place in Boston, Massachusetts since I’m familiar with most of the places that were mentioned (such as Fall River, etc).
I’m looking forward to reading more books in this series as they come out!

Robert Granville has so much to live for. His lovely wife, and his son to be born baby. Then he receives the news his time has come. He needs to live life to the fullest is the briefest amount of time. He won't share wonderful moments with his wife, and he won't be a father to his child. And then....Morrow appears. Did I say appears? Yes I did! He has to hurry and take advantage of the time left to find the solution to be with his family. All he has to do is learn to go from dimension to dimension and frome plane to plane....one more thing....he has to fight a murderous entity.
Well written story. One of those where you get deeply involved in the storyline and everything around you ceases to exist

This book was a work of art. Absolute perfection. This story will make you think about life and death and what happens after. It will also make you consider the question of how you will handle life and/or death situations.
This was a terrific read with terrific characters that draw you in and never let you go!
Fantastic from start to finish!
