 Bane County: Returning Moon

Bane County #2

by J R Rice

Genre:  Horror

My Review

I loved the first book and couldn’t wait to see where this would take me. It’s been almost twenty years since the horrific events and Bryce and Jackson have grown up and settled into their lives. But, they’ve not forgotten what happened and are getting ready for what’s to come.

The author did such a great job with these characters. Bryce and Jackson feel like the adult’s they’ve become, haunted by the past and fearing the future. Once again I worried about their survival. The beast was awakening and they must again do battle against a deadly, almost unstoppable foe.

This was even crazier than the first book. There was more than one evil the guys had to deal with and the action scenes were bloody mayhem. I really liked how things from the past were explained. It made me love the good guys even more and I hoped for a bad ending for the evil participants in this story.

Many side characters again made appearances and several played key roles in the battles. Sure made things interesting and ramped up the excitement and suspense.

I couldn’t have asked for more in this continuation in the series and already have the next book lined up.

Synopsis

For nearly two decades, life in the small rural town of Silver Canyon had been peaceful and serene. People went about their daily lives as usual, completely oblivious to the inescapable horror that loomed on the horizon.

All but a select few of Bane County’s residents had forgotten the macabre occurrences of the past. It was hard to believe that twenty-one people, missing or dead, in only three months’ time had been so easily dismissed.

Bryce McNeel and Jackson Campbell had been at the heart of those horrific events, and the tragic memories of that long, bloody season still weighed heavily on them, especially since they knew it wasn’t over.

The time was quickly approaching when a long-slumbering evil would reawaken, and the horrors of the past would revisit the people of Bane County. Somewhere within the dark cavernous depths of the wildlife refuge, something ravenous awaited, longing for its time to rise.

As Bryce and Jackson prepared themselves, they were unaware that an even deadlier adversary would come for them, and once again, they would find themselves in a battle for their lives.

 Bane County: Forgotten Moon

Bane County #1

by J R Rice

Genre:  Horror / Thriller

My Review

I was browsing for something scary to read and happened to come across this book. Juts look at that cover. Wanting to know more, I read the synopsis. An isolated little town in a National Wildlife Refuge. Mutilated bodies and missing people. A legend from the past. All of these pinged my radar as a good fit. Oh, and the werewolf. Just look at the cover and you’ll see what I mean.

Right from the beginning the writing pulled me in. The characters were brought to life. Bryce and his cousin, Jackson, were typical teens on the cusp of adulthood. Close as brothers, they had each other’s backs. A brutal killing too close to home had them worried And then a near death experience with something monstrous pushed them to dig for answers. To find out what was lurking in the woods.

There were so many scenes that raised the hairs on the back of my neck. The suspense was huge. I just knew things were going to go horribly wrong. People were going to continue to die. My worry for Bryce and Jackson and their families made the reading so intense. I was afraid to continue but couldn’t stop. Often enough authors kill off their characters. I was really hoping that wouldn’t happen with these.

About that werewolf. Now that was one nasty beast. It liked to play with it’s food. And it was sentient. Not just a monster.  I can’t think of much that is scarier than a huge creature, darn near unstoppable, being able to think, to plan and stalk. How do you fight that?

I love a wicked werewolf story. And I like to read horror stories at night when the house is quiet and the only light is the glow from my reading lamp on the headboard of my bed. As soon as I finished this, I got out of bed, opened up my computer and grabbed the next book. I couldn’t wait to continue with this series.

Synopsis

The large river-island of Bane County has a troubled past; but some histories are eagerly forgotten, especially those written in blood.

Nestled into the foothills of the National Wildlife Refuge, the small rural town of Silver Canyon seems idyllic to most; but a long-slumbering evil is about to reawaken.

Seventeen-year-old Bryce McNeel is your average teenage boy, living on a cattle ranch with his grandparents. Well, average genius, but he prefers to keep that fact to himself, no one likes a know-it-all.

When Bryce learns of a series of grisly deaths and mutilations that occurred decades earlier, his curiosity gets the better of him. Together with his cousin Jackson, Bryce sets out to learn more about the macabre event; but as they delve deeper into the history and legends of Bane County, the two boys are horrified by what they find.

Unfortunately, history has a way of repeating itself.

As friends and neighbors begin to go missing, or worse, they find themselves embroiled in a battle for their young lives.
