A dark fantasy for older children with martial arts and magic. My favourite was the vomiting bats that provide a unique dining experience. An imaginative tale that raises questions about the nature of hell and God, and what really makes a hero.Looking over the other reviews for this book, I can identify with both sides. Part of me really wants to like this book and there are parts of the book that are really likeable. The other part of me was ssooooo bored with the whole thing. The characters were poorly developed. Who was Jack? Why would he follow his best friend to Hell? What about Esme? Why should any reader care about someone she knows nothing about? The plot dragged on and on - 500+ pages. Really? But then there were the Chinj
Good. But some parts got me bored, however full of action the scene was.
I loved this book very much.
I picked up The Black Tattoo at random because of the interesting cover design, and I wasn't disappointed. This novel was a grotesque, satirical romp that was fun to read. A totally new theory of hell is presented here, and it is as interesting as it is dark. I wouldn't recommend this book to everyone, but if you are interested in religious themes and horror, you should give it a go; I found it a satisfying read.
You could say that The Black Tattoo is another of the countless good vs. evil tales where a trio of characters battle to save planet Earth from the forces of darkness. You could say that. Until you read this book. The author's cast of characters could be any of the teenagers attending your nearby school. Charlie, the misfit, is bored with school, doesn't do homework, can't get a girlfriend, hates his life and desperately wants to be like his ultra-cool, good-looking, smart and ever-popular
