Upon his beloved mentor’s death, a young seminary student begins a journey to prove that everything in which he once believed is nothing but a fraud. His travels take him to the mountains of Bulgaria, where he’s forced to seek shelter in the cabin of a wild-eyed old hermit who claims to be a member of a secret order of monks, charged with the task of guarding the crypt of a captured demon. He has no interest in the hermit’s account until an intruder attacks.

A very good story May 1, 2010
Reviewer: MyPOV from www.self-publishingandread.weebly.com  
This story had aspects that worked really well. In the beginning there is a good mingling of the back story with the emotional mindset of the protagonist. In this way there is not just a lot of narrative about the events preceding the present moment of the story. The tension rises quickly.  This is always a plus. Moreover tension is maintained throughout the story with the simplest of images and thoughts. This is a credit to the writer. The voice of the first person narrator is convincing even in his humorous moments. The writer does a good job with presenting just the right amount of setting. He uses some original metaphors that compliment the storyline.

There were some things that did not work so well. One is that a similar incident takes place in the lives of both the protagonist and the old man. This particular kind of coincidence is over used in fiction writing and  detracted from the story a little. Two is that  the protagonist is angry and upset about something.
