A review by iam
Daddy's Boy by Johannes T. Evans

dark tense fast-paced

4.0

 Plays parallel to Gellert's New Job: Gay Fantasy/Crime Short Fiction but does not necessarily need to be read before reading this. Another great novelette set in the magical crime town of Lashton, this time about the crime family of the Laithes. At the center are father and youngest son, the latter wrecked by PTSD and an anxiety disorder, as well as his father's coldness towards him. It's a dark read, but I enjoyed it, though the twist at the end was unexpected and not entirely to my liking. Still cannot wait to read more.
