My Thoughts & Opinions
The stellar reviews captured my attention. However, I didn’t get the same vibe as the other readers. I probably would have enjoyed it more if I read the previous novel as I was pretty clueless as to the backstory of Buzzard’s Edge and it’s people.
The Demon of Devil’s Cavern is not anything like what I’m used to reading in the horror genre. I expected a horror story similar in the adrenaline rush like novels written by Duncan Ralston (Ghostland) and Daniel Kraus/George Romero (The Living Dead.) The Demon doesn’t even come close to the graphic and horrific depictions of zombies, ghosts and other demons that I’ve come to expect from a good horror novel. That being said, I found The Demon of Devil’s Cavern to be a little boring. Two okay stars.
I received a DRC from DarkLit Press through NetGalley. This review is completely my own reflect my honest thoughts and opinions.
