Love is as strong as death, as hard as hell

A dark night, a car accident, a fire, a burnt man.
The hospital. The burns, the slow recovery. The mysterious woman, the fortress, the gargoyles that want themselves out of the stone.

Mystic and fantasy. Pain, strong emotions, and above all love. Deep and unconditional love. Love that lasts 700 years.

I was captivating by the story even from the first page. Sometimes the feelings were overwhelmed. Disgust and pain, terrible pain.

Sometimes the details about the burns and the medical procedures bocome horrible, you want to stop, the reading becomes painful, but you just can’t. You even discover that they are essential and they the story couldn’t be completed without them.

I wish I could write more about this book. But I cannot. I am still captivating; really this story just blew me away. There were moments that I wanted to cry. I have had dreams in my sleep.

It is Davidson’s debut book and I can only recognise that he has the gift of creating and writing fantastic beautiful stories. One of the best books I have read this year. Just read it.
