The Wolves of London (Book Review)

The Wolves of London is a new release from Titan Books and author Mark Morris that delves deep into the horror and science fiction genres. The book is the first release in a trilogy of books that follows a former convict named Alex Locke. The character finds himself forced into another dangerous job in the criminal underworld, when he is tasked with finding and recovering an ancient and powerful artifact known as the Obsidian Heart. The new release is a good start for the series, and we're excited to see where Morris takes his lead protagonist and carefully crafted horror world from here.


The title artifact Obsidian Heart is at the center of the Mark Morris penned trilogy. The item is literally a human heart crafted from the dark material known as obsidian. As Alex Locke soon finds out, the heart is more than it seems and gives its owner supernatural abilities and an ability to travel through time. The downside that comes with the item is a dark spirit that eats away at the holder's soul, and even worse are the evil assassins known as The Wolves of London that want the Obsidian Heart for themselves and are currently hunting Locke relentlessly.

Mark Morris is a fantastic horror writer that is capable of putting a lot of authenticity in the characters he creates and introduces in The Wolves of London. The book isn't as much frightening as much as it uses monsters and supernatural powers to craft a storyline fans of horror can greatly appreciate. The world and setting for The Wolves of London feels real and authentic as the characters that inhabit the world. Readers will enjoy Morris' attention to detail in every setting and character featured throughout The Wolves of London.

The Wolves of London is a great read and an exciting start of the Obsidian Heart trilogy. Horror fans will find plenty of monsters and supernatural themes to enjoy throughout the book. Even more impressive is author Mark Morris' ability to create characters that are interesting and makes readers want to read one more chapter to see what happens next. Unravel the mystery of the Obsidian Heart in The Wolves of London today!
