I really loved this audio book! Picked it for some October spooky vibes and wasn't disappointed. For those who are saying it wasn't for them or who might hit a bit of a wall near Gabe and Denora, it helped me to take the whole thing in as if it were an old school fable set in modern times; challenges of skill are pretty classic in older stories. I won't give spoilers, but I loved then ending and the whole book made me very uneasy in the best way!
