MICRO-REVIEW ARCHIVE LOG

I mean, what's not to love about a book that opens with a warning like that? Matt Dinniman has got my attention from the get-go, and THIS INEVITABLE RUIN is just the start of an unforgettable ride. The premise is twisted enough on its own, but it's the way Dinniman executes it that really impresses me. He's got this knack for blending humor and horror in a way that feels both irreverent and unsettling at the same time – exactly what I'm looking for in my dark fantasy reads. I'm not gonna lie, the first few chapters had me hooked from start to finish. The world-building is solid, with just enough mystery to keep me curious without overwhelming me. And let's be real, those opening lines are basically a guarantee that you'll want to keep reading – I mean, what kind of dark sorcery could possibly result in a curse like that? Five stars isn't even doing this book justice; it's more like six or seven if I'm being honest. If you're looking for something new and wild to sink your teeth into, THIS INEVITABLE RUIN is the perfect place to start.
