A review by darquedreamer
A Mask of Flies by Matthew Lyons

dark emotional tense fast-paced

4.5

Oof, this one started off with a bang. It gave me Terminator and The Thing vibes, and would have made a kick ass movie. It was thrilling, gory and gritty, nonstop action with a high body count. Full of blood, guts, and body parts, like Kill Bill and Ready or Not. It had a motley crew of dynamic characters. Especially STRONG, badass, female characters. It had me rooting for the criminal. It ended up being a little long winded, but it was an enthralling mix of Crime Thriller and Eldritch Horror, with twists and turns galore. And, there was a cat. 😻

Thank you Tor Nightfire and Netgalley for the e-arc!
