Description
Ron Olson is a reluctant newcomer to Deer Falls. Adjusting to this small Colorado town is tough for Ron, who has been torn away from his father, his friends, and his soccer team.
His situation takes a frightening turn when a mysterious woman in black is released from a chest that imprisoned her. This ancient and powerful evil descends upon Deer Falls and a series of unexplained deaths follow. No one is safe. Anyone in the town could be next.
Ron is soon targeted by the centuries-old malevolent witch as she reigns terror and death upon the town. Can Ron and his new friends find out the truth about the deaths that have plagued the town and stop the witch before more people die?
Advance Praise
"Told through multiple POV’s, the author builds a rich landscape for his characters to populate. The worries and concerns that Ron faces are the same kind of anxieties that many teens will relate to.
Coon’s characters are well developed and personable. The dialogue is realistic and flows easily from one speaker to the next. The plot is well thought out with several twists to keep things exciting.
The novel held my interest throughout and is one that I can recommend to others." -- Page M., Amazon Customer.

I received this book for free from NetGalley in exchange for my honest review.
This was a good read. I wasn’t sure if I would like this book. In the first couple of chapters the pacing seemed a little off but once the plot was established it took off very nicely. There was one character that seemed a little too convenient to have in the roster but I understand why they were needed. It just makes me think how different the story would be if they weren’t there. I’m reluctant to give away much more in case something is spoiler-y. One word of caution is this book is a horror so there are some graphic violent scenes.

Pandora Reborn is a dark horror fantasy book about a town where weird supernatural things take place more frequently than anywhere else. Ron Olson is new to town and already struggling since his parents divorce. The popular kids take an instant dislike to him but he finds friends in Casey and Christina. People are disappearing and dying and Ron may be the prime suspect.
This was a fun easy read. Slightly gruesome but I have read way worse. I found certain things a little predictable but other parts were unique and I was unable to guess. I actually read this pretty quickly but it did not suck me in. I did not find it bad I just never got sucked in. I liked the premise and the characters were realistic for the most part. I found Ron to be a little s*** at times but for his age I think it was totally normal.
I would read this author again because I think hes got some interesting premises and I hope he grows in his writing. There is a lot of potential which is why I give 3 1/2 stars. I'll round to 4 because on NetGalley that is yes I recommend it. On Goodreads I would have put three because I liked but didn't love it.

This book was AMAZING! It hooked me in from the start and kept my attention throughout. I read it in one sitting! The cast of characters was perfect for this book. I feel like Dean should have gotten a bigger part though. I am going to put this on my Halloween reads shelf!
