To describe the book in one word - unique. It’s a hard book to explain. The writing style of this book was so compelling and one of a kind. It did have grotesque descriptions of events that almost made me put down the book. However, these events were inline with the plot and characters unlike other books who chose to be graphically morbid for no reason. It had a complex plot that was hard to predict. I don’t think it had the most satisfying ending but the ending almost fit perfectly to the style of the book.

The audio edition is a treat, complete with musical accompaniment for a couple of campfire songs. I was unsure if I would like this; the synopsis on the ARC didn’t quite sell it for me and the first chapter really tests your judgment of character. I’m glad I waited until the audiobook release, John Pirhalla is a good fit in terms of tone and pacing, and succeeds at voicing a large and diverse cast of characters.

I was excited to read a cowboy horror- something that I never would have thought of but seems so perfect- and was eager to start it. While it is definitely violent, I fell in love with the characters and enjoyed the plot as they battled different supernatural elements on the prairie.

I would definitely recommend this book to anyone interested in what I would call “D&D” horror. It’s an unlikely group that set on an adventure with many familiar supernatural/horror events. I thought Grecian’s take on traditional folklore and ghost stories was a refreshing take that kept me on my toes.

For me, personally, the violence against animals was too excessive which is why I docked it a star. If that doesn’t bother you, I would definitely give it a read.
