Description

Our thrilling new line bringing new tales of Marvel’s Super Heroes and villains begins with the infamous Doctor Doom risking all to steal his heart’s desire from the very depths of Hell

Notorious villain Doctor Victor von Doom has finally found a solution for his oldest obsession: rescuing his mother’s soul from the clutches of Hell. An alliance with the reclusive sage, Maria von Helm, has provided the key to Doom’s latest invention. Fusing their super-science and sorcery, Doom has created the Harrower, a device that will open a rift and wrench his mother’s soul from the netherworld. Back in the human world, however, rebel forces threaten to overrun Latveria and topple its dark leader – and revolution couldn’t come at a more dangerous time than when the gates of Hell itself have been unlocked.

I'm not a reader of comics, so the world and characters in "The Harrowing of Doom" were completely new to me. I really enjoyed this book - probably even more than I thought I would. It's a gripping story that's a lot of fun. The characters are well-built and interesting. What really carries it off is the writing - it's so smooth you'll find yourself halfway through the book before you know it!

My thanks to the author, publisher, and NetGalley. This review was written voluntarily and is entirely my own, unbiased, opinion.

I was given an advanced copy for an honest review.

Victor Von Doom is one of my favorite characters in the all of Marvel Comics, so when I saw a novel based solely on him I knew I had to read it. David Annandale does a fantastic job of writing Doctor Doom in my opinion, keeping you guessing every step of the way as to just what Victor is up to and why.

This novel sees Doom working to save his mother from hell itself, with the help of Maria Von Helm, however a poorly timed uprising will soon cause problems for Doom on a scale they never imagined.

This is a fantastic book, suitable for all fans of Doctor Doom. I wish it had been a little deeper and of course longer! There is a pretty large cast of characters which at times makes it seem like Doom is pushed to the back and often kind of blended into the larger group, which isn't really Doom's M.O., however I still really enjoyed this book and look forward to buying it as a Christmas gift to a giant Doom fan in my life on release on December 01!

Thank you! To the publisher, Aconyte Books, and NetGalley for providing an arc in exchange for a fair and honest review.
