Book Review
The following review was originally published by Tera on her Blog, A Succubi's Tale on January 17, 2025
Elliot can’t shake the nightmares which haunt him. They stick in his thoughts and they don’t want to let him go. It’s when the dreams mix with his reality that his world becomes unraveled and his tormentor comes closer with each passing moment.
The work is mainly focused on horror and suspense with a bit of a succubus theme around the story to give it some direction and flavour. It’s not erotica, nor is it fantasy or adventure. The shifting reality that Elliot goes through, the battle with the dark forces around him carries on throughout.
Dremora, who can be described as the succubus of the work, Is more of a night terror, a small aspect of the succubus myth. The focus is on her dream walking, manipulation and what comes through that. She’s a dark presence with a darker purpose and that sets a tone for the story which never leaves.
Where things come to a close is, after all that happened and all that came to be, something of a disappointment. It feels a bit tacked on and I wonder about it. Perhaps it’s a means to connect a follow on story, or at least leave such a thing as a possibility. We’ll see if that’s true but otherwise it seemed a bit lost and uncertain. But then a great deal of the main character’s path was that.
Three out of five pitchforks.
It’s a story that falls somewhere between a work of terror and a psychological drama which has an inkling of some succubus themes. But it’s really not a succubus story as that’s not where the story holds itself to. As a drama and exploration of one’s self, it’s interesting and quite a gripping a read overall.
