Iron and Fire | AstraDaemon

Amanda Warrick is on the run. Fleeing from the clutches of Spencer Daniels and his cult of personality, Amanda is living in a stolen identity in the tiny mountain town of Darkwater. What Amanda doesn't realise however is that Darkwater has its own secrets, and not all cults are created equal...

LORD OF PLAYGROUNDS by Brett O'Reilly is essentially cult versus cult, scam artists versus true believers. The POV jumps back and forth, as Amanda recalls her time within Spencer's twisted circle, while she navigates her new life as a school teacher...with a stolen identity. Unfortunately for Amanda, she soon finds herself caught up in a terrifying hell made of iron, with the flames of her past licking at her back.

I am recommending this one to all readers. This is a great combination of crime drama, cult horror and the supernatural. I sincerely hope O'Reilly writes more stories like this one. In the meantime, LORD OF THE PLAYGROUNDS will be making my Best Fiction of 2021 list.

As always,
AstraDaemon
