A review by evavroslin
Bottled Abyss by Benjamin Kane Ethridge

5.0

Bram Stoker Award-winning author Joe McKinney couldn’t be more right in his praise quote when he says that Bottled Abyss, the second novel from fellow Stoker Award winner Benjamin Kane Ethridge, is “…a book grabs you from the opening line and refuses to let you go.”

Bottled Abyss is dark fantasy at its darkest, the horror elements leaning toward the fantastical side of the spectrum. It’s an absorbing read that will remain with you long after you’ve turned the last page. Ethridge is the real deal, readers. He’s a writer’s writer—a horror scribe who I believe will only continue to rise, his star shining brighter with each book. Here’s hoping that Bottled Abyss garners Ethridge a second Bram Stoker Award nomination, and fingers crossed, the win.
