The church of dead girls: Prologue and part 1 overview

So in this book is kinda of part with something stephen king would write but some what more on the nose, and this is a book that Stephen King recomended, at least it what it says on the cover.



The prologue starts with the narrator explaining that 3 girls were found dead and decomposing like mummy kind of way and kind of set up like they were sacreficed to some kind of god or Satan or something and it is revealed that the narrator is living in the town that it happened. An outsider to the investigation who just happens to have family ties to one of the investigator. And so the story kind of kicks of with the ending and the result of it.



The narrator then goes what the author deems as part one of the story and begins telling about the town Aurelius some town in the states that is basically in the middle of nowhere but is big enough to have a college but small enough to have a mentality of a small town.



The introduction of the town goes over pretty quickly and the focus of the narrator goes to this organisation and the people of an leftist organisation and its members, the leader being a teacher in the local college and they mostly meet in the local library but it is made out of outcasts and partially out of people that are crazy!



Like one bit the ear out of the bully, later bit a female doing some of the naughty stuff, left to go to university but comes back to the town like so many that grew up in the town and left for their studies. The backstory of the crazy guy is kind of sad, he was being bullied because of his mother being unfaithfull to her father and basically having a certain relationship with every guy in town.



The organisation, does some morally faulty stuff like breaking down graves of capitalist, with other words they vandalise the graves of graves because of ideological differences. This is something I cannot defend for myself.



I think this book is off for a good start to be honest, it is written in such a way that I could say that it looks to be written (or at least translated) in the style of Stephen King's books it grips you not from the start but it kind started off it gets you glued to the book instead of something else. I give this part for the kind of slow and weirder start a 6,5/10 dead girls.
