Set in Colonial New England, Slewfoot is a tale of magic and
mystery, of triumph and terror as only dark fantasist Brom can tell
it.
Connecticut, 1666: An ancient spirit awakens in a dark wood. The
wildfolk call him Father, slayer, protector.
The colonists call him Slewfoot, demon, devil.
To Abitha, a recently widowed outcast, alone and vulnerable in her pious
village, he is the only one she can turn to for help.
Together, they ignite a battle between pagan and Puritan - one that
threatens to destroy the entire village, leaving nothing but ashes and
bloodshed in their wake.
This terrifying tale of bewitchery features more than two dozen of
Brom's haunting full-color paintings and brilliant endpapers, fully
immersing readers in this wild and unforgiving world.
