This is a amazing read with a brilliant storyline
I loved every aspect of this book from the plot to characters and the wickedly amazing monsters.
I can't wait for the next instalment of this series.

Eldritch monsters, Order if Yaga…. Debbie Cassidy returns to her base in epic fashion, pulling out all the stops and edging to the foundation of horror fantasy, while still firmly staying in the realm of Urban Fantasy. This introduction is the first in a new series that promises to intrigue as much as it entertains.
Telarion, the said Eldritch monster, has hitched a ride and co-opted August’s body, using her as a host / a feat that could see them both killed if it got out. But of course, the powers that be are in the know and manipulate the situation to get August Under their thumb, as a powerful being and useful tool, a rift Walker.
Some of this is predictable, because powers are seldom mundane and a world of magic inspires mystery - yet Cassidy delivers some surprises along the way, like that ending!
First person, urban fantasy.

Think Venom but add some spice and tension into the mix! I loved this book so much and I am on the edge of my seat waiting (as patiently as possible) for book 3 to come out. This is a series that just keeps getting better!
I loved the urban fantasy setting that Debbie created, the characters were all fantastic, and the underlining plot kept me engaged in the mystery and action that was unfolding. I ordered the second book when I was just a few chapters in because I could already tell this book checked all the boxes for me.
