4.5/5

The Wolf Society by Michael Penning is book 3 of the Book of Shadows series, and my second favorite after book 1 (All Hallows Eve). Just the first 2 books in this series, it is basically nonstop action, gore, and violence and in no way for the faint of heart. Trigger warnings also abound in this installment, with the inclusion of rape, so it's definitely not going to be for everyone. I love the team that is Abigail and her daughter Anna, and while they aren't *entirely* likable characters, I love them just the same. They are also both super badass which clearly helps, although there was a lot more weakness shown in the characters this time around.

There are so many things that were truly terrifying about The Wolf Society, and I loved the mix of horror and mystery. This is also a really quick read and on the shorter side since it is under 300 pages. I was so into it that I definitely could have easily read it in a day, and I don't recommend starting unless you have the time to finish! That is unless it's so gory you have to read it in parts which I would completely understand. Penning is such a talented indie writer, and highly skilled at drawing the reader in, so I recommend not missing out on this series! If you can handle extreme gore and triggers, this is for you.

I received a complimentary copy of this book. Opinions expressed in this review are completely my own.adult-fiction atmospheric badass-women ...more19 s Trish308 27

This is the third book in the Book of Shadows series. I haven’t read the others and I had no problem following along, so this certainly can be read as a standalone. First of all, I love the author’s writing style. The level of graphic violence was fantastic and terrifying. I honestly was reading with my mouth hanging wide open the whole time.
