Cadaverous by Jay Bower

4.0

Cadaverous is a story written up as a journal (blog) type format which was a new thing for me that I quite enjoyed. It’s filled with heavy metal, demons and the one who wants to sell his soul for fame and fortune type of trope.

The main character Gaige was extremely well written, full of teenage angst (which you can feel while reading) struggling to leave his abusive father and make a better life for himself. I’m not giving more of the story because it’s a book that should be read with spoilers.

This was my first book from Jay Bower and from the moment I looked at the cover to the fish chapter I was hooked. You can see that the author did a lot of research beforehand (demons, summoning, incantations and music).

Definitely worth a read!
