AMERICAN REVIEWS What if the Anti-Christ is more to be pitied than feared? That is the question raised by the central character in this transcendent novel. No less than an in-depth character study of eccentrics (each of whom is stripped bare, lie by lie, from when the reader first meets them to when each of them dies), "PrimoDeus" is a spellbinding tale of sexual tension and biblical portent, as well as a vehicle for some 'eerie heebie-jeebies' regarding the life of Beaulyn deFaux, a defrocked priest on the last night of his long death, thirty years in coming. - Burlington Arts Review (January...
AMERICAN REVIEWS What if the Anti-Christ is more to be pitied than feared? That is the question raised by the central character in this transcendent novel. No less than an in-depth character study of eccentrics (each of whom is stripped bare, lie by lie, from when the reader first meets them to when each of them dies), "PrimoDeus" is a spellbinding tale of sexual tension and biblical portent, as well as a vehicle for some 'eerie heebie-jeebies' regarding the life of Beaulyn deFaux, a defrocked priest on the last night of his long death, thirty years in coming. - Burlington Arts Review (January, 2017) Ambitious in scope and sweeping in inclusion, "PrimoDeus" is a gripping, exploratory character drama with biblically high stakes. The text features many literary devices that give the writing an epic feel. Imagery is vivid and fully realized, allowing for vacillations in scenes and time jumps. Chapters are structured in a play-like format, with different acts and interludes breaking up particularly difficult moments of tension and exposition. This arrangement adds to the epic nature of the work and allows the text to grow and develop naturally. Both hugely epic and inherently relatable, "PrimoDeus" is a thrilling exploration regarding the ravages of time. - Kirkus Reviews (June, 2017) "PrimoDeus" is gratifyingly complex, akin to a mystery novel, such as "The Da Vinci Code." The manner each scene is presented ensures that the ultimate climax is unpredictable, even to the best deductive minds. The story has short arcs, medium to long-range arcs, and an arc that spins itself into an epiphany, that moment when the reader satisfactorily resolves the central theme in his own mind. This novel is a thinking-man's book, where virtually all the characters are women, sad and besotted creatures who live and love in the evolution of one man: Beaulyn deFaux, the Miracle-Priest, Son of God, the Anti-Christ. - Amazon Book Reviews (May, 2018) Buckle down for a wild ride. "PrimoDeus" explores the mental state of the Anti-Christ before the End of Days. Is Beaulyn deFaux the Anti-Christ, or isn't he? Is the Anti-Christ our own creation? Long-buried secrets in the lives of the major characters, depleted by their own anguish and self-serving denials, distort their present realities and thrust them in bizarre interactions that, eventually, allow the readers to gauge for themselves the truth surrounding the defrocked priest. Some of the themes cover sensitive subjects and may trigger a sense of revulsion, anger or powerlessness in introspective readers. By the same token, empathetic and insightful narration on those scenes will help the reader understand that the ordeals, experienced by these characters, can make it possible for them to grieve and recover from their own comparable traumas. - The L.A. Chronicle (May, 2018)
