The comparisons to Stranger Things are apt and well deserved. This is one of the most original and unique books I've ever read
Katherine Webber, author of Wing Jones An expertly written horror laced through with joyful comedy, Martin Stewart's follow-up to the award winning Riverkeep is a suspenseful and gruesome tale of friendship, family and faith - perfect for fans of Stranger Things or Stephen King
Scottish Booktrust
Moody and atmospheric, with sardonic humor; a meaty slice of horror
Kirkus Reviews
Stewart is masterful. He weaves a chilling, supernatural plot with a playfulness and brings the darkest chapters back from the edge. I suspect Stephen King would be impressed
Bookality
This eldritch escapade is certainly an option for kids too old to go trick-or-treating
