A review by ebdawson
Deadwood (Crockett and Crane, #2) by Kyle Robert Shultz
4.0
I am a huge fan of this author and his body of work, but this one didn't quite hit my taste and I just felt like the pieces didn't fit together as well as some of his other books.
I think the first half was actually my favorite. Lots of great dialogue. This book does get rather dark, but there are two types of creep/dark. The concept of the living town, the backstory of the entity who possesses this town was all deliciously creepy to me.
Some of the creep that comes later in was not as much my taste and I found myself just not having fun in the last third. But a huge part of that is personal preference and attached to personal things going on in my life. Character motivations was another big thing that didn't work for me.
But if you loved Horseman, you should definitely give this one a shot.
