Ania Ahlborn pumps fresh blood into a familiar plot with The Devil Crept In. Small towns, unspeakable evil, and missing kids are plot staples that every horror author plays with at some time. But The Devil Crept In doesn't feel like it's running down a well-worn path. Instead there's just enough fam...

The whole first part of the book just didn't do a lot for me. The second section of the book picked up a bit and ...

I am a big fan of Ania Ahlborn. She has been consistently good since her debut novel Seed. The Devil Crept In is no exception. There were some truly excellent and unique characterizations here, as well as, a trademark Ahlborn ending, which fit the story perfectly. I highly recommend anything that sh...

Despite the growing fear and tension in the city, this may be Nell’s big year. She may finally fit in a...

This was entertaining - I listened to it in the car during my commutes and it kept my mind off of traffic. But I thought it could have been much better. Someone described the book as southern gothic, but it didn't have a sense of place; it could have been set anywhere. It also lacked anything atm...

Brother is the ultimate tale of family dysfunction, betrayal and murder set in the backdrop of a small community in rural West Virginia. Nobody is safe in this one as family secrets are revealed and the tension level slowly gets ratcheted up to eleven. Ever since her debut effort Seed, I have been a...
