Slewfoot: A Tale of Bewitchery

Another banger from Brom! I definitely enjoyed Krampus more but this is still a 5 star read for me. A lot more slow of a burn but I don't mean boring by any means.

The setting is 1666 Connecticut, by unfortunate circumstance Abitha must run a farm by herself and create enough corn to pay off her brother in law who will do whatever it takes for her to fail, for to fail means that he gets the farm. Abitha starts hearing whispers and seeing things lurking in the woods. Dealing with that, her brother in law trying to sabotage her, and the religious zealots who are trigger happy to call “witch” on anything they don't understand, she might just lose her farm. She ends up calling for the help of a dark woodland entity who is called by many names; Father, Protector, Slayer, Demon, Devil.....SLEWFOOT
