Peter Saint's life stinks. But things are about to get much worst. First, his parents are murdered in front of him. Then another victim dies in his arms. Visions plague Peter with warnings that something wants him for a sinister cause. It desires the one thing that Peter refuses to give—his blood.

My Review:

Purgatory Reign is a very creative novel.  Peter, a young teen who lives in an orphanage, believes he is cursed.  He saw his parents die when he was very young and it has plagued him ever since.  He was taken in by Pastor Finn at the orphanage - but little did he know it wasn't because his parents were dead, it's because the Pastor is protecting him from something evil.  When Peter witnesses the death of a young girl named Hanna, she gives him a mark on his hand that will change his entire life.  Pastor Finn send Peter away to another hidden church so he can be safe.  While at the new church Peter discovers a map of other places with strange symbols on them - and the ghost of his Mom....

The story gets even more thrilling and is filled with plot twists (which I absolutely loved).  L.M. Preston took a typical coming-of-age story and gave it a whole new fantasy/sci-fi twist.  I loved the creativity put into this novel.  I never fully knew what was going to happen until the very end.  An incredible novel that keeps your interest the entire time.  I definitely recommend this one to anyone who loves a good thriller, fantasy, YA novel.  So... L.M. when is the sequel coming out?! :D
