NEW REVIEW: Darrell King - Deadly Phine

Darrell King
Deadly Phine
Available Now!
2 out of 5 books


Deadly Phine tells the story of Larry a.k.a. Lucien Octavius Valentino, who’s a carrier of HIV5X, a highly aggressive and drug resistant strain of the disease that quickly mutates into full blown AIDS within a few months after transmission. He knowingly goes around infecting women with the deadly disease.

I understood some of the messages the author was trying to convey about HIV/AIDS, but the story fell flat very quick. One of the things the author could have done without was putting statistics in the beginning of a new chapter.  It made me feel as though he was introducing new characters in the story, when in fact he was just giving another statistic. The author’s lack of transition of time, scene, and characters only made this a very hard read.

I do applaud the author for tackling the subject of HIV/AIDS. Deadly Phine will serve as a reminder to never be fooled by someone’s good looks.
