Solsticio Del Fin Del Mundo (2011) - Plot & Excerpts
Reggie Holloway is able to go into the fearscape and rescue souls, which have been `kidnapped' by the Vours. Vours are demons who posses your body, but they are only able to do this on the Winter Solstice. However, they have a human helping them, who are conducting experiments underground near a mental hospital. Soon the Vours will be able to possess your body at any time of the year.I decided to read this book based on this awesome poem on the back cover:"Beware the darkness and the light.They will steal your soul in day or night.In summer's warmth and winter's coldYour life will end when the Vours take hold.In the fearscape no-one can hear you cry,And in its depth your soul will die."The descriptions of Reggie's journeys into the fearscape are spine-chilling. The images are vivid and dramatic, and you can see every detail in your mind's eye of what it would feel like within the mind of a lost soul.Although the end was abrupt, (I suppose it is leading up to a sequel), and I did not enjoy this story as much as I thought I would, it was still a very good scary read. Simon Holt nos trae la segunda parte de esta gran trilogía, una historia llena de suspenso y momentos en los que tus pulmones podrían quedarse sin aire. Al igual que la primera entrega, Solsticio es un libro en el cual, los miedos desgarran cada centímetro de tu cuerpo, haciéndote parecer vulnerable.Es un libro muy fácil de leer, con un final muy, pero muy diferente al primero; ya que el primero tiene un final cerrado, en el cual tu te puedes dar por satisfecho, pero no, Simon Holt parece que le gusta hacernos sufrir y deja la segunda parte en el momento mas intenso de todo el libro. Mis palabras al cerrar el libro fueron: -¡no puede ser!-Un libro totalmente recomendado, y ahora solo nos queda esperar la tercera parte.

If this book had been a movie, I would have been on the edge of my seat at times.
