The Terror of Willow Falls by Jay Bower

This book was great! Who doesn’t love a good origin story. If you’ve read The Conservator’s Collection, you’ll be familiar with Jay’s story of the Eyebiter (if not why 🤨, and yes I’m definitely judging you for that). Either way, I dont think it will matter what order you read these 2 stories, one will not spoil the other. In the Terror of Willow falls, Jay explores the origins, through past and present day, plus we get a little coming of age storyline as well. He does a great job (I guess 🤢 🤭) with the gory descriptions, they aren’t over the top, just enough to make someone like me a bit queasy. His writing and character development are spot on, and I wasn’t left with any lingering questions other than “when can I expect the next book?”

As a side note, I love the little Easter eggs ?!? Or honorable mentions ?!? that I keep finding in all these books. This book and the previous have tie in mentions and it just makes my heart all dark and fuzzy (maybe that’s mold, I should have that checked out). 

Anyway read both books I mentioned, they’re awesome and so much fun.
