“Sabbath

An eleventh-century sinful warrior named Hexen Sabbath is brought to Manhattan by an angel, and sent on a holy mission to kill the seven deadly sins posing as powerful, wealthy, and influential humans, corrupting those around them, their end goal being Armageddon. Hexen's only help is a woman struggling to open her art gallery.
The book cover is pretty cool, and the writing is really good, with almost the perfect amount of description and story. But the story wasn't that wonderful. Hexen was an interesting character, happy to commit every sin but would still give his life in God's name. Jennifer, the art gallery owner, wasn't portrayed as smart and was a slut. I didn't care much for her at all.
The blurb had potential, but the story quickly turned into a 'want-a-be' B movie with violence, swords, and the removal of heads. The story jumped around as he tried to complete his quest, finding his foes really easily, and killing whatever when he had to.
A lot of violence, sexual situations, and language so this book is only suitable for readers over eighteen.
