Darkness of the Light by PAD - official SFFW Review
I just posted my official review here.
Here's a quick paragraph:

With such an opening, a lot of chaos will be afoot throughout the book. David follows several characters’ storylines throughout the tightly plotted novel, the majority of which seem right out of myth, fantasy, and legend – Fauns, Cyclopes, Vampire, lizardmen, minotaur, and Mermen / Mermaids. These are just a few of monstrous races populating the Damned World, an Earth of the future in which the story takes place.
