Aberrant Monsters by Debbie Cassidy
5.0
4.5 rounded up
Eldritch monsters, Order if Yaga…. Debbie Cassidy returns to her base in epic fashion, pulling out all the stops and edging to the foundation of horror fantasy, while still firmly staying in the realm of Urban Fantasy. This introduction is the first in a new series that promises to intrigue as much as it entertains.
Telarion, the said Eldritch monster, has hitched a ride and co-opted August’s body, using her as a host / a feat that could see them both killed if it got out. But of course, the powers that be are in the know and manipulate the situation to get August Under their thumb, as a powerful being and useful tool, a rift Walker.
Some of this is predictable, because powers are seldom mundane and a world of magic inspires mystery - yet Cassidy delivers some surprises along the way, like that ending!
First person, urban fantasy.
