Praise for Vivian Schilling's SACRED PREY "Thoroughly
gripping
highly respectable writing."
"A psychological
thriller you won't forget ... written with an imagination that smacks
of part Edgar Allan Poe / part island voodoo ... an unforgettable trek."
A
page-turner
Sacred Prey reads fast and hard, like a gangster movie
screenplay, with sharp images for impressionable minds open to the supernatural.
Its clear Vivian Schilling knows where she wants to take her readers
The book just takes a clear, clean shot at its target -- nothing
fancy, just right to money. And
it works.
"Startling
and Brilliant
Illuminating ... Vivian Schilling writes with all
the passion of lightning. Her ideas brood and rumble and thunder and relentlessly
strike home. The scenes snap and crackle like live wires, the characters
pulsate with fear, the entire plot passes from one insight to another
... a terror filled, very metaphysical trek into atonement ... There's
a powerful message here of dread and fury and the final peace that passes
understanding."
"Screenwriter
Schilling offers a chilling insight into fear lived through another man's
eyes."
"Move Over
Dean Koontz, there's a new name on the horizon. It's Schilling, Vivian
Schilling. Rarely does a book blow me over -- maybe once or twice per
year. Sacred Prey is that rare exception. Terrific and fantastic are the
terms that come to mind to describe this unique premise and tidy execution."
"A mighty
tale of action, adventure, passion and brutality ... the author keeps
us riveted to the end, when she ties it all up with the neatest bow ribbon
ever."
"Suspenseful
... well done!"
"Downright
entertaining ... Schilling handles this with the panache of the practiced
screenwriter she is. Though this is her first novel, the genre is very
close to her (Future Shock) made-for-television movie, the tricks for
the latter serve well in crafting this fast-paced novel ... Well handled."
"Screenwriter
Schilling shows deft storytelling ability ... fresh, lively, and supplied
with plenty of suspenseful twists ... a promising debut that will surely
entertain."
