About this ebook
A USA TODAY BESTSELLER!
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.

It has been a while since a book had caught me so, so delightful to read Brom again, I've loved all his previous books, jumped right into this one as soon as I found out about it and it did not disappoint!! beautiful, gory and witchy!

This was my first Brom read, and won't be the last. I devoured every word! Slewfoot has it all; magic, mayhem and murder. Abitha's tale is tantalizing to say the least, grappling with our idea of god and goodness, the wickedness of man and the benevolence of a beast. I loved every page.
