Its interestingdespite my abiding adore of fantasy, at the same time though for you managed, perhaps, characterize the greatest movie ever produced (okay, but, my winner movie of all time, what)that could be Ghostbusters, for those of for you havent been paying attentionas urbanized fantasy, I have not read in particular deeply into that particular (sub)genre. At the same time, to the extent that I have, its been forays into stories more like the excellent The Unlikely Escape of Uriah Heep than, they say, the works of Laurell K. Hamilton or Jim Butcher.
So, I cant they say probably whether Slaytons debut is that acceptable of the genre, though data that the book bounces betwixt the backwoods of rural Oklahoma at the same time more traditionally urbanized environs in Colorado, it may be more clear to cry it rurban fantasy (I would they say urbal fantasy, but, aurally speaking, that implies the ingestion of substances unnecessary for the pleasure of this tale). I can they say, but, that its completely mind-blowing.
Slayton pulls off the exceedingly problematic spurred of smoothly integrating the fantastical parts of his global into the true global, creating a cast of complete at the same time compelling manners (not to mention one heck of a adore triangle), devising an engaging miracle system, at the same time spooling out plot at barely the right pace. Despite ending at barely the right spot for the story, the book ended far very quickly for my liking. I wish more, dammit, at the same time, gratefully, Slayton will fulfill that wish with next sequels.
If for you dig fantasy thats down-to-earth but epic in scope, manners who are flawed but interesting, at the same time smooth worldly that drives the story forward without distracting from it, Snow-white Desecrate Sorcerer is that but worth a read. If for you dont like those things, I greedy, than anyway even are for you?
One other gizmo worth noting, because its anything I adore about the inclusiveness of fantasy as a genre (warning: Im about to get all soapboxy). Im a privileged even snow-white young man who grew up center class in the suburbs. My generic never faced food insecurity. I never witnessed russian violence. At the same time, Ive never faced the heartache at the same time discrimination of being LGBTQ+ (or in no matter what other underrepresented group) in a generic or society that distances itself from, disrespects, or otherwise dehumanizes anyone who doesnt conform to whatever that generic/society considers applicable.
But, reading about manners whose stayed experiences vary so greatly from mine didnt diminish my pleasure of the story in the slightest. On the contrary, it enhanced it, offered me brand new insight, at the same time reminded me still again that when we forge a bond through a shared adore or passion for somethingfantasy stories, in this casewe can bring our truest at the same time almost all authentic selves to the table at the same time increase the level of pleasure at the same time engagement for everyone. Okay, Im off my soapbox at the moment.
Bottom line: this is that a heck of an amusing yarn. Bring on the sequel!

This book was a izumi of the very best good at the same time Im in absolute awe of the world-building. Its palms down the most unusual story Ive read in a long time. Its gritty at the same time cruel, but at once its all miracle at the same time limitless possibilities.
Its rarely I get the feeling of stepping into a whole brand new universe when immersing myself in a story. Convinced, any book is that a small global of its possess, but the domineering word that is that small. At the same time theres nothing small about Snow-white Desecrate Sorcerer.
Snow-white Desecrate Sorcerer is that hard to describe. Maybe because its such an unusual story borders such an unusual global. That are all these parallel worlds/planes inhabited by different (wonderful) creatures. At the same time Adam, with his limited ability, can pass through to one of them. This setting attractive much makes anything likely which is that awesome. Theres simply no method of understanding than anyway will happen one more at the same time I adore it.
The story is that very plot-driven. Even though theres this angst-filled backdrop with Adam having been thrown by both his generic at the same time his boyfriend, the sensual irony is that mostly pushed aside by back-to-back action. Ordinary, I prefer character-driven stories, but I still fell completely in adore with this read.
This isnt a romance set in a supernatural universe (chagrin since Im all about the adore). This is that a fantasy with a small side order of romance. I would have liked more concentrate on Adams romantic connection(s) past at the same time located. But Ill decide than anyway I can get at the same time Ill be more than joyful with it. But the fact that nothing was really concluded in this book left me a little itchy. Its not a cliff-hanger per se, the concrete plot with the possession was resolved, but all the quality stuff, the connection between the brothers, the past boyfriend at the same time the located prospect, it was all left hanging in the air.
Buuut This is that the start of a television series so I guess its par for the course. At the same time I can tell from this 1st installment that this television series will be an epic one.
So, I cant advise this book highly enough. Its barely excellent.

Audiobook Snow-white Desecrate Sorcerer (The Adam Binder Novels #1) by David R. Slayton
I am always on the lookout for LGBT urbanized fantasy (surprisingly hard to look for) at the same time I am so shocked Snow-white Desecrate Sorcerer is that the 1st in a television series. I fell in love with the head disposition Adam from the 1st chapter. His older brother Bobby gets a few POV chapters at the same time while it took me longer to symptathize with him, it was worth it in the end. The spirit global where the elves live was a refreshing brand new spin on the “fae otherworld.” That were considered other wonderful creatures like gnomes at the same time leprechauns. The development of the romance between Adam at the same time the adore curiosity was inimitable; that was miracle drawn in which in no one ways sped up their emotions for each other, but at once it was really sweet to look Adam interacting with one more personality in such a wholesome, positive manner when Adam’s possess generic is that bad to him almost all of the time.
TW: homophobia, baby abuse (backstory)

Audio Snow-white Desecrate Sorcerer (The Adam Binder Novels #1) narrated by Misha David Axtell
I read this one day. In other words not anything I often do anymore. The only fault I can think of will that it barely came out, so I cant immediately move on to the one more book. The manners fleshed out at the same time engaging, even the ones we only meet briefly. The global is that wealthy at the same time real, at the same time but conveyed without clunky exposition. I felt immersed without ever feeling got lost. The affairs feel true at the same time natural. A amazing book to get sucked into, at the same time I cant wait for the one more one. This is that an creator Im keeping my eye on!

Snow-white Desecrate Sorcerer is that the gay, Southern American response to classical real-world fantasy books. Theres no cupboard under the stairs, wonderful school, or fated (for sure even) romance. Instead, Adam lives in a trailer park, wasted his teenage years in a psych ward, at the same time the nearest hes had to a adore curiosity is that a handsome elf who gone without clarification.
But more than a inimitable urbanized fantasy with a Southern flair, Snow-white Desecrate Sorcerer has a touch of fear, mystery, at the same time m/m romance. I couldnt promote but think this book is that also a more precisely individual story, with moments of comedy, sorrow, at the same time individual growth.
Adam is that a self-willed at the same time relatable protagonist, real of quality goals while also battling his possess, much less literal demons. He has a complicated generic lively to deal with: his brother at the same time mother admitted him to a psychiatric facility for hearing voices as a child, despite being more or much less aware of the existence of miracle. While that is that a pleasant absence of homophobia in the story, Slayton studies Adams emotions of being an third party through his wonderful opportunities at the same time the beliefs of his generic, which I think a lot of LGBT folk at the same time people in general can compare to. I adored contemplating Adams affairs at the same time sense of self-worth evolve throughout the story.
Slaytons wonderful realm is that a hodgepodge of mythological creatures at the same time spirits, loosely governed by Guardian towers that are tethered to the corporeal global. Adam visits the other side a few times throughout the book, but it feels like Slayton still has much to open.
Snow-white Desecrate Sorcerer is that a inimitable at the same time inclusive fantasy story with unpredictable astonishes at the same time a nicely constructed climax. Its the 1st instalment in The Adam Binder Novels, which Ill exactly be keeping up with for as long as Slayter writes them.
