“Dark academia, gothic horror, fantastic prose & lovable characters mixed together gives you Evocation”
(Hardback)
Dark academia, gothic horror, fantastic prose & lovable characters mixed together gives you Evocation. David, Moira & Rhys are a wonderful addition to S.T. Gibson's track record of well written characters. David's character growth over the course of the book was natural thanks to Moira and the start of their friendship (then relationship) was a standout for me. Moira deserves the world!
“Dark, Deadly & Passionate!”
(Hardback)
I've been in love with their writing since Dowry and this did not disappoint! Filled with magic, ghosts and passion. You instantly fall in love with all three of the main characters, flaws and all. The narrative and S.T's lyrical prose had me hooked from page one!
Get this one pre-ordered, you don't want to miss it! Also the finished cover is to die for.
“Okay wow this was so good!!!”
(Hardback)
I freaking loved the tension in this book between these three and I think I'm beginning to love this genre of throuples
This was fantastic! I love dark witchy books with complicated characters that you don't really trust that are good but also not evil.
The writing was so beautiful and I cannot wait to read more books in this series especially with these stunning hardcovers & I also need more of Moira she is my absolute favourite from this!
“Pure magic.”
(Hardback)
I wasn’t sure what to expect from Evocation. However, I found that I by the end of reading it I absolutely loved it. A Small cast of well formed and well rounded characters set in a world of spirituality, magic and secret society’s. It was pure magic.
“5 stars!”

Thank you to the publisher/netgalley for providing me with an arc!
Where to start? I absolutely loved this book. I was so utterly immersed in this book and I completely adored all of the characters.
I found David such an interesting character as he was quite unlikable to begin with as he was portrayed as just another spoilt, rich, white boy but as I kept reading I found such a depth to his character that I couldn't help but love.
I also thought the portrayal of Moira and David's relationship to be so interesting and natural and it developed so beautifully. Speaking of Moira, my god, what a girlboss. She is such an overwhelming well written character who I just absolutely adored the entire way through the book.
Rhys McGowan, the man that you are. I have never fallen so damn hard in love with a character. I really related to a lot of aspects of Rhys' character and I thought he was so incredible. Honestly, any man that calls his wife "little goddess" is a 10 in my books.
On to the actual plot of the book now, I really enjoyed the deal with the devil/possession aspects of it and I didn't feel overwhelmed by the magic/occult/tarot aspect of it as I don't particularly know much about that. I found it very well paced and readable and not once did I find myself in a slow bit.
All in all, I think this book is an excellent example of polyamorous relationships, has a fantastic second chance romance and incredibly written characters, all while having an interesting and exciting plot to move the story forward.
