📝 Description: Goddess of Bane (The Retro Terror Series #3)

She is the Goddess of the Night, the mother of darkness and death and she is going to make the small New England town of Thindleson pay. Paul Callaway, the new town historian, moved to Thindleson to start a new life. Little did he know that he'd become embroiled in a fight for not only the town's life but maybe the entire world. Joining forces with scientist Karen Nevins, the two strangers will need to unravel the dark history of this quaint New England town as a powerful entity, that only strikes at night, stalks its streets! Goddess of Bane is a lurid, schlocky tale of supernatural revenge in the tradition of the horror tales of the 80s.

Goddess of Bane excels at delivering exactly what its retro premise promises: a vibrant, over-the-top supernatural adventure. The author effectively captures the spirit of 1980s horror with its clear-cut villains and dramatic stakes, creating a fun, engaging experience for genre enthusiasts. While it lacks subtlety, this is clearly intentional, serving as a love letter to pulp fiction rather than a flaw. It suits readers who enjoy visceral, fast-paced stories where ancient evil threatens the mundane world. The dynamic between Paul and Karen provides a solid framework for the mystery, ensuring the plot moves with urgency. It is a delightful, low-stakes thrill for anyone tired of overly serious contemporary horror, offering pure, unadulterated genre fun.
