When Evil Moves In | AstraDaemon

In the winter of 1966, a small southern town becomes entangled in a horror they never anticipated. With birds attacking the townfolk, the people only have one person to turn to; a five year old boy who proclaims to be prophet. He makes his claims of being sent by God to rid them of their sins. Everyone is falling for this little boy and his judgments.

But one boy knows differently. He's seen what this little boy is doing and he's determined to stop him. He's determined to make sure no one else knows the pain he's known.

As things begin to grow colder and the little boy's influence only grows stronger, everyone begins to wonder:

Who is Seth?

SETH by Christy Aldridge isn't a horror novel...this is a horror experience. Imagine getting caught in a bear trap: as you slowly bleed out, a predator comes along and begins tearing pieces away from you. You know you're going to die, but you don't know what's going to kill you first. This is pretty much the situation the narrator finds himself in...trapped, with his life slipping away, while having his family and friends torn from him.

Seth is one of the creepiest kids ever featured in the genre. As soon as he shows up with a freaking paper bag on his head, I knew someone should've taken a tire iron to the kid, ASAP. Unfortunately, even fictional characters are as reluctant to off a child, as we are in real life. Also difficult to fight such a devious enemy, when you have a murder of crows -- well, MURDERING people and attempting to steal their souls.

Throw in a zealous bible-thumper, small town culture, and teenagers, and you have the perfect recipe for a last stand in a demonic battle. Winner takes all. In the end, Aldridge doesn't release you from the trap or the predator, but shoves a paper bag down your throat as you try to take your last breath.

Highly recommending this one.

As always,

AstraDaemon
