libraryofaryn 's review for:
The Hollow Gods
by A.J. Vrana
This is part one of a duology and is told from three different character POVs. I enjoyed the stark differences between the characters and wanting to know how they would all connect kept me engaged. (I will say that the three don't meet until 80% of the way through the book, but I'm interested to see if they work together more in the second book.)
There are quite a few dreamlike sequences throughout that kept me guessing at what was reality and what wasn't. The sleep paralysis demons were an especially creepy touch. There was also so much rich folklore included that added to the macabre feel of the book.
I loved the haunted feel of Black Hollow and that all the residents seemed to accept the horrible things that kept happening to them without question. This made things even more challenging for our three main characters to overcome, on top of all the nightmarelike creatures they faced.
