The Dark Missions of Edgar Brim: Demon by Shane Peacock was a thrilling, gothic ride that I really enjoyed. I was drawn in by the eerie atmosphere and the way it blended classic horror with a personal coming-of-age story. Edgar’s struggles with fear made him such a relatable hero, and the supernatural twists kept me hooked until the end.

This book had a unique premise, it was a tad bit slow at the beginning but swept me up soon enough and kept me in it's grip well until the end. I would recommend it to other fellow fantasy fans in a heartbeat. Thank you for allowing me to read and hand sell this title.

I actually went and read the first 2 books as I didn't realize this was a part of a series. I really enjoyed the first 2 books.

I was hoping for me. It really was a royal disappointment :( It sounded so edgy and dark but I had to walk away from it twice. It had so much promise. I do hope you are going to go back and edit it again and make some changes because it desperately needs it.

I give it a 2 and that was generous. It felt rushed and incomplete in places.

Unfortunately, this book didn’t live up to my expectations. The plot seemed very promising but drags on. The book reads very stilted - they go do this then run into this person and then go do this. It really pulled me out of the flow of the story. The ending was a disappointment as I expected fireworks but only got a fizzle.

I can't lie but I mainly wanted to read this because of the really cool cover. Lol it's amazing so points to that. I've never read this series and had no idea it was one but that didn't deter me as most series reads do. This was a enjoyable, fun read with a lot of great characters and I will for sure check out the first two of the series. This is also a great book for the young adult just getting into dark fantasy.

Thank you to Netgalley and the publisher for a copy of my ARC.

Each character is unique and portrays strength in their own way. The world building was well done. I really want to check out the first two books in this series.

It's an excellent book, well written and entertaining.
I liked the world building, the character development and the plot even if it's quite slow at times.
It was a good reading experience even if I didn't read the other books in this series.
Recommended!
Many thanks to the publisher and Netgalley for this ARC, all opinions are mine.
