The Virus of Beauty (The Virus of Beauty Book #1) by C.B. Lyall – Review by Angela Hayes
The Virus of Beauty by C.B. Lyall
My rating: 4 of 5 stars
4 Stars
The Virus of Beauty is the first book in The Virus of Beauty series by C.B. Lyall. This is a wonderful YA fantasy that has such a unique, original, and very imaginative storyline. This is the first time for me reading one of Ms. Lyall’s stories, but after finishing it I can honestly say that it won’t be the last, as I can’t wait to see where we go from here.
This has a bit of an action-adventure feel, with magic, witches, wizards, a horrible virus, magical realms, romance, danger, dramatic developments, mystery, a touch of destiny, suspense, conflict, politics, and fantastic world-building.
We meet Wilf, who is a wizard who prefers soccer than have anything to do with magic. But as a potent virus start affecting the witch population- hitting close to home when his friend falls victim to it too. He has inherited a journal from he father that holds the key to the cure, so Wilf will need to put aside his fears and find a way to unlock the spell and save his friend before it’s too late.
A fantastic start to the series. This ends on a bit of a cliffhanger, so things are set to continue in Book #2, The Veil of Corruption. Bring it on!
Happy Reading!
Thank you, C.B. Lyall!
