This section, for the first 120 or so pages is what some readers have difficulty with. It starts off pretty slow, almost like Ashton is trying to find his voice. It could be described as brutal urban fantasy, combined with a small amount of YA elements and mixed with all the demons, Gods, and mythological creatures you were too lazy to research at school. Written in third-person present tense, Paternus often reads more like a film script than a novel. Like many, I found out about Ashton and Paternus by following 2016's Self Published Fantasy Blog Off where this book was awarded third place by the panel of recognised and influential bloggers. I would like to thank Dyrk Ashton and Paternus Books Media for the opportunity. I received a review copy of Paternus in exchange for an honest review.
