A jaded assassin seeks refuge in a gambling city. A cop seeks his lost wife. A witch prays to dark gods. Lives collide as the world burns...
"A vivid lead character and a crazy-brilliant core premise make this more than just another action-wracked high concept thriller. But it's ALL THAT too!" (Chuck Dixon, writer of Punisher, Batman, Levon Cade series)
A NEW STANDALONE VOLUME IN THE ASANTI SERIES!
"The sarcastic killing machine is BACK, and she still loves Frank Sinatra and dangerous blondes. DEMORN SOULFIGHTER is another link in the chain of the life and trial of Demorn, an assassin who is discovering what it is like to have a heart that beats without shame."
Demorn, exile and assassin, has journeyed across the Glass Desert to Bay City to aid an old friend. The Bay is home to the Soul Fights and a welcome respite from the War which consumes her life. But the conflict that is tearing apart Firethorn follows her to Bay City.
As a catastrophic comet descends upon the Bay, Demorn fights to untangle a web of conspiracies surrounding friends and enemies alike. As she uncovers past sins from those she trusts the most, Demorn is slowly drawn into a desperate, last-ditch plan to avoid the destruction of everything, never sure where her loyalties lie.
Meanwhile, Demorn’s old friend is developing into something more…

This is the third of the Demorn books. I read and reviewed the first two last year. As a quick refresher on the premise, Demorn, the Wandering Princess of Swords, is a witty (and sometimes nihilistic) young woman who has time-travelled, space-travelled, and dimension-travelled throughout a multiverse that’s crumbling under the weight of imminent cosmic calamity. She is an extraordinary fighter, making use of guns, fists, a supernatural flaming katana, and a variety of magical objects gifted to her by gods and other entities in her wide and varied travels. She has been a priestess, arena fighter, and presently a mercenary. She also really loves comic books, and is good friends with Frank Sinatra, who happens to be a leader in a resistance against cosmic baddies.Each of the Demorn books has had a common difficulty. In their freneticism and dimension-jumping and panache, they are confusing as hell. They’re all packed with action which is so well-written and so detailed that it’s a beauty to read, but keeping track of the plot is always challenging. In Soul Fighter, a catastrophe called the Fracture Event has torn apart the multiverse, erasing past timelines and sending beings from one dimension into another, wreaking all kinds of havoc. Members of a cultish organization called the Triton Corporation initiated the Fracture Event for diabolical purposes involving wicked cosmic gods (fans of H.P. Lovecraft will recognize the concept). Demorn starts in a Las Vegas-like metropolis called Bay City, where she competes in Soul Fight tournaments. Each fighter carries several mystical skulls which contain a soul, enabling them to fight and die multiple times. The loser of a fight has their soul-skulls taken away by a Death Banker, shadowing persons with their own motives and allegiances. From this setting, Demorn turns from gladiator to assassin to hunt down one Death Banker who means to release a cross-dimensional plague on the city. This sets her on a path to encounter an old friend and sometimes enemy, Iverson, an operative and detective-like character with whom she embarks on a quest to find the Reset Pyramid, which will enable them to reset time and avert the Fracture Event. Along the way they encounter former friends and rivals and lovers (Demorn, I nearly forgot to mention, is a lesbian), including Demorn’s brother Smile, her former co-priestess Toxis, her former lover Winter, the powerful warriors Wolf and Wrecking Ball, and the white-collar foes within the Triton Corporation. This book also has a brief appendix to help keep track of all the characters, factions, and magical items in the series.
I can’t stress enough that despite how confusing these books are, I love them. Each of them has been an incredibly fun read, and I’d highly recommend them for fans of sci-fi and fantasy. Reflecting on the way the stories work, I see a lot of influence from comic books especially. With the variety of worlds and scenarios and the vivid descriptions, I’ve wondered if the books might be enriched if they were in fact graphic novels instead of prose novels. If the author ever does make a graphic novel of the series, I would be excited to read it, and I certainly look forward to the release of the fourth book in the series, titled Demorn: Ultimate Fate.

Demorn Soul Fighter The Asanti Series Book 3 eBook David Finn Jaye Manus Reviews
I was asked to read this and was happy to do so, but this is the third book in the series and I have not read the first two.
The writing is competent and moves along at a good clip. When I say 'competent' that could sound like it was barely passable, but that is not the case. The writing drew me in and made me forget I was reading words and instead I felt like I was drawn into another world.
That is another place this book excels, world building. The story world is intricate and complex, full of well drawn characters with their own agendas and quirks. None felt flat or one dimensional, but like real people, albeit people in some form of alternate reality.
There is a mix of realism, things from our world, mixed in with alternate dimensions and the two crisscross to form an engrossing arena for the story.
If I had to boil it down, it felt to me like Blade Runner meets Armageddon, meets Escape from New York meets Alice in Wonderland, meets…
You get the idea. This is the third book, and if unlike me you have read the first two, then you already know you are in for a ride and a pretty good story.
David Finn has done it again! He's created a stunning, visually impressive world and filled it with highly entertaining characters. If you like a high-octane fantasy adventure, you can't go wrong with this one!
A very complex story that was not easy to follow at first. This is not a story to rush through but rather take your time and let it all sink in. Overall I really enjoyed reading the book and want to read the rest of the series. Full of action and very intriguing. Well worth reading.
Let me tell you something about this author and his work
Finn has a passion for his craft that is evident in every page of his work. From the first page of book 1 to the last page in the novel, it's obvious that Finn had a bigger picture in mind every minute he spent writing.
As for this novel specifically, I'd say there were about two events (one small and one big) that I did not see coming and that delightfully surprised me. This book delivers heavy on action. If you liked the first two, buckle up.
