The Curse of the Wendigo by Rick YanceyMy rating: 4.5 of 5 stars
I love the writing. Mr. Yancey is a master of words. One quality I love of this book and the previous one is how it's set in the past. Somehow, that setting gives the book a rich feel. The story in this one didn’t grip me quite as much as in The Monstrumologist, but it’s still a well crafted tale. Be ready for the gruesome horror elements. This isn’t for the weak-stomached. Reading the first book in the series is helpful, but it isn't necessary. This book can stand alone.
Parents and Teachers: Violent monster gore, images of human death described in detail, some 4-letter word language, a few inappropriate references to the human body and its parts, discussion of fecal waste. Ages 13+ or the very bold 11-12 year old.
