I absolutely loved What Moves the Dead and went into this with real high expectations. This book continues to follow Alex Easton as ka* heads back to kans homeland, Gallacia. There are still very much gothic themes and imagery, but it takes much longer to get an unsettling feeling we got in What Moves the Dead. I do love we got to understand more of the culture of Gallacia and I think the novella did an excellent job at explaining necessary world-building lore. The story itself is fairly slow in the beginning due to the world-building. However, the last 1/3 of the book is amazing and gives you those same creepy feelings you got from the first book. I would recommend reading this if you enjoyed the first one, just know there’s less horror and more mystery

I was about to say it was less terrifying than What Moves the Dead, but I have not yet fallen asleep.
