A magnificent coming of age horror story. Some parts reminded me of Stephen King’s books, especially IT.
The story is centered around a young misfit named Will. Janz does a wonderful job bringing Will to life, he is sympathetic and you can’t help but root for him. Sure, the story features quite a few classic tropes like a young kid who gets bullied and comes from a tragic situation. But it’s those type of underdog stories that I find oh so fun, and sometimes it doesn’t matter if it’s a common trope so long as it’s well done.
The story featured lots of winding twists and turns, never boring. Everything flowed, just right, great pacing. And some of the reveals I should’ve seen coming (but I didn’t).
Really hoping the author continues this series (damn cliffhangers!). I loved the characters and want to see what happens to them (that’s when you know you are into a series!).
