Where the Daybreak Ends

Instantly fell in love with the cover of this collection of short stories in the world of Buzzards Edge.

As soon as I started reading this collection of short stories I was hooked, especially with the way they were narrated as though campfire tales but more of a mythos especially considering the two unlikely narrators.

They built up a past/present/future history of this place set in the blazing desert and just recently been found by (revealed to?) Josiah Dennis after trekking for a while with no food or water, just a bloody hatchet for company…

The collection is woven around the story of Josiah Dennis and his bloody hatchet, each as goos as the next and nothing really letting the collection down. Full of monsters both supernatural and human, they weave a bloody tale of life and death on this frontier between night and day.

I think two of my favourites were ‘Trade Secrets’ and ‘Holes’, both dealing with lawmen and their ways, and the darkness that they hold.

Eventually going to have to find the rest of Brennan’s works that are set in Buzzard’s Edge.

I received this through NetGalley in exchange for an honest review.
