Spooky Book Club is a monthly reading group for the macabre-curious. The genres we explore are often horror, horror-adjacent literature, thriller, supernatural, gothic & more. We meet every LAST Friday of the month.

Sign up for book clubs at Glendora Bookshop by email, call/text, or just stop in and inquire. Spooky Book Club also mingles on FB so be sure to join our group to keep in touch.

September’s Spooky Book Club selection is Slewfoot by BROM. Be sure to snag your copy at Glendora Bookshop (book club members take 10% off book club reads!) and join us in September to discuss!

*****

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. https://bookshop.org/p/books/slewfoot-a-tale-of-bewitchery/18841349?ean=9781250621993&next=t
