It feels as though I have disclosed much of the storyline of ''The Abomination'' but I really haven’t. Jonathan Holt’s book has an incredibly dense plot that takes you on a journey full of twists, conspiracies, deception and danger leaving you constantly questioning who can be trusted and what will be discovered next. This is a terrific read with the different plotlines all being attention-grabbing, inter-weaving nicely and contributing to the overall storyline. The main characters are well fleshed-out and believable and the conspiracy at the heart of this book is also intelligently put together and revealed piecemeal with great timing. Considering the scale of the conspiracy uncovered within the story the ending felt a little rushed and didn’t quite feel as satisfying as the lead up. This is to be the first of a trilogy though and hopefully this finale is intended and the next two books will pick certain aspects up and steer them to a more satisfying conclusion. The ending does not detract much from an enjoyable read and I am still left with a desire to read the rest of the Carnivia Trilogy and hopefully join the thrilling characters from this offering again.
''The Abomination'' has a few similarities with the fantastic [[The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo by Stieg Larsson and Reg Keeland (translator)]] which if you haven’t already I strongly recommend reading. We also have a review of Holt's [[The Abduction by Jonathan Holt|The Abduction]].
