Hold Me Closer Necromancer Necromancer Series Lish McBride Books

Sam is college dropout, trying to find his place in the world but currently flipping hamburgers, riding his skateboard and hanging out with his friends. A smashed tail light causes a chain of events that brings Sam to the attention of the areas most powerful necromancer and brings Sam to the discovery that not only does the paranormal exist, but he is a necromancer as well.

Douglas intends to train Sam, keep him if he's useful and kill him and steal his power if he isn't. None of these options is really what Sam had in mind for his life, and his attempts to resist Douglas lead to murder, uncovered family secrets, heroism and love.

Hold Me Closer, Necromancer has a fast, but enjoyable pace. The chapters alternate between Sam's first person point of view and a third person point of view of other characters. This causes the flow to be interrupted a bit at the beginning of chapters, but isn't a vital flaw.

When the paranormal world is revealed, the reader is bombarded by race after race of fantasy creatures. This is overwhelming, trying to absorb all the information being given, and many of the races have no bearing on this story. A more gradual introduction, as the races become relevant, would have been better.

Sam and his friends are well defined, with likable and believable personalities. Douglas is a bit over the top, more of a stereotypical evil villain, but his back story was well written.

A most amusing point was the chapter titles. Sam's love of classic rock is reflected in those titles and often gave me a chuckle.

Hold Me Closer, Necromancer is good, light novel with humor and tension and well planned plot. I expect Ms. McBride will leave her mark in the paranormal YA genre.

Note to parents: This novel does contain consensual, lightly described, sex between young adults.

Hold Me Closer Necromancer Necromancer Series Lish McBride Books Reviews

Hold Me Closer, Necromancer is the first in Author Lish McBride's Necromancer series, following late bloomer necromancer Sam LaCroix and the troubles his newly budding powers are causing him.

Sam has, up until now, lived a fairly normal life. Dropped out of college, working a dead-end job, and barely scraping by. After a game of make-shift hockey behind work during break, Sam becomes tangled up with Douglas Montgomery, a very dangerous necromancer who has plans for Sam.

One week is all Sam gets to figure out what to do join forces with Douglas, or have everyone he loves be murdered. That week is, without a doubt, one of the worst of Sam's life.

This was a very enjoyable novel. It took some time to really get into, as I felt the story swerved a bit too abruptly to Brid, the hybrid werewolf who eventually becomes the love interest. There was no subtlety there, and I suppose others would appreciate that but it was a little too much for my taste. Other than that though, I felt the writing was well done, the story was chalk full of drama and suspense, not to mention snippets of horror. In the end, despite the little hiccup in the beginning, I was absorbed completely into this book and am glad I decided to pick it up!
It's almost a little ridiculous that this book has any rating under five stars, though differences in taste happen. I mean, other people are clearly wrong, but that's alright. People are wrong sometimes. Most people, however, can see this book for what it is hilarious, witty, and engaging. The characters are intriguing they each have their own very early twenties personalities and shared young people problems, but, on top of that, they have very strange, paranormal problems, issues that would kill normal people and could potentially be the end of them. But, in a very Harry Potter vein, McBride's friends are extremely loyal. They will sacrifice themselves for each other, and sometimes do. That aspect of the book was very touching. There are veins of witty jokes running song titles (as amusing as the cover title) and references to what has come before this book in various other pieces of literature. But this paranormal read is unlike any other book I've read. It takes stale horror and paranormal themes and makes them, well, believable and real. Sam, his friends, his family and their various life traumas give the book that authentic feel. The paranormal elements add intrigue to the book, but it is stable even when those elements are not at play. All this to say, this is an author you should give your attention to, paranormal fan or not. An elite writer.
