Review of THE WICKER WITCH by Cheryl Low Release May 7.
THE WICKER WITCH by Cheryl Low is Horror exactly the way I prefer it, and therefore a perfect novel for me. Totally engrossing from Page One on to the end, disturbing my sleep, interrupting my thoughts...perfect. Yes, extreme Horror, gory, but an exquisite interweaving of Implacable Supernatural Evil; human cupidity, pride, and manifest destiny; and human existential angst in the face of overwhelming remorse and inability to alter "reality." And what a reality the inhabitants of the quiet little village of Wicker endure: isolated, tucked at the foot of Mount Bell, thinking their lives are so preferable to the community down below, across the river.
Until: the ancient evil with whom Ancestors four centuries ago brokered an ungodly pact, comes calling for retribution. |
