《Book reviews *Requests Closed*》'Medium' by The_Wolf_99

From all the stories I've reviewed so far, this one might be my favourite. It's great. It really is. It's one of my favourite kind of stories: It's dark, mysterious, and it's funny.
Our main character is Chris Greene, a pessimistic guy living in London with his twin Ashley. He's a nurse and DEFINITELY NOT GAY.
So anyway, one day he gets dragged to a bar with a straight-up crappy name, cat'ndog, and the beer there is even crappier. He meets Kate there. Kate can be described as a whacko nutjob, or is there something else with her?
And then the murders and weird paranormal scheiße start to happen. Like I said, my kind of story.
I love the characters, really. They're funny and diverse and great. There are also LGBT+ characters, and I don't see that a lot in original fiction (fanfiction, yes, but not original fiction).
The story starts getting weirder when Kate really enters, but the first chapters weren't boring to me, mainly because of humour. Heck, there were no boring chapters in my opinion.
Grammar and spelling is fine. There are not a lot of those really elaborate descriptions you can expect from books, but the story is written in first person, and first person rarely has that, so it doesn't matter that much.
There is a thing about hyphens though: before almost every line of dialogue starts, there's a - . This can be annoying, but it says in the first Author's note that it was already pointed out and that it will be changed. On this topic, no further complains.
Final warning: the book deals with topics such as self harm, suicide, etc. There's a trigger warning in the description, but I thought I'd mention it too.
Rating: 9!

Sustaining the King's Life
On a secluded mountain situated upon a kingdom known as Feuersturm, resides a seemingly trifling cabin with an unlikely duo as its inhabitant—a witch, and her apprentice who presumably comes from a clan sought after by slave traders. Faustina is a sixteen-year-old girl who fled the slave market with the help of a sickly witch named Eula, who later on trained her as an apprentice for the span of seven years. Plagued with a mysterious disease for several years, Eula died despite the efforts Faustina had exerted to cure her; in her last breath, she left an odd request behind. "Sustain the king's life. This is your duty. Do not adhere to the prophecy." To which the odd plea shadowed a bizarre series of events, a consequential sentence, similar to that of a premonition. The same night the phrase was muttered, the chain of events followed: A warlock's intrusion to their home, with a peculiar yearning to resurrect Eula from the dead... and the king himself, asking for Faustina’s aid. ** 1-2 chapters a day (GMT+8) ** (The artwork belongs to me.
