You also can’t tell me that this wasn’t inspired by the January 6th insurrection.

I love Quinn & Rust’s friendship and caretaking of each other without the eye-rolling romance involved! I think Rust is a unique character, he's into weapons but only is them for self-defense and tries to do as little damage as possible.

So there was no hesitation to order Adam Cesare's sequel this year - Frendo Lives!
It's one year after the massacre in Kettle Springs, at the hands of the masked Frendos.
Quinn, Rust and Cole have tried to move on, but social media and conspiracy theory notoriety has questioned if they were victims or perpetrators of the tragedies.
Meanwhile, Frendo is back. Just in time for Halloween.
Clowns In A Cornfield 1 and 2 are classed as YA but rest assured, they're not short on violence and chills.
Fans of the first Cornfield - don't miss this one! Recommended!

This addition to the story felt so much more scary and out of control than the events from the original Baypen Massacre. I spent a lot of the book wondering how the hell our main characters (Quinn, Rust, and Cole, along with a new character who lived through the original tragedy also, Jerry) where even going to get out of this.
As expected of Clown in a Cornfield this book was fast pace, fun, and didn’t beat around the bush with the outrageous violence and murder. Also, as to be expected, the overarching themes were extremely politically poignant.
My only complaint is, while I loved the way characters were built upon from the last novel…I found myself really frustrated at Cole a lot which made me less invested in him, but his actions weren’t things I’d consider to be out of character either.
The ending could be setting up a third installment of Clown in a Cornfield…or not. I enjoyed the ending either way
