Critics Review
“The secrets under Lake Argen are chilling, the hellhounds and eldritch horrors are adorable, and the romance goes from fated to bitter to sweet in an epic climax. Highly recommended.” —Library Journal (starred review)“Plenty of humor, quirky characters, a sweet romance, and minimal scares make for a cozy, satisfying read.” —Booklist“Just a fun experience from start to finish. Huff tells a story of deals with eldritch horrors, sacrifices, death and betrayal and then softens it all up with a veneer of cozy mystery that makes the overall book a much lighter story.“—GameVortex”Hilarious, horrifying, and romantic, Direct Descendant is deliciously fun.” —Stephanie Burgis, author of Wooing the Witch Queen and Good Neighbors
