Lisa Gramling I read Brandon Faircloth's books starting with his two book series: The Outsiders: Book One and was surprised to find myself intrigued but also filled with that "This could have been so good if he just hadn't resorted to creating a new kind of monster tuse as filler" but I kept reading it until I reached the end and inmmediately started The Outsiders: Book Two and read it as fast as I could because Book One primarily set up the two main acters - grandfather and grandson - and what the grandfather does when he's not at his job at the local hospital as it's most revered Dr.Barron - when the grandson sees his grandfather take a wrapoed body from his trunk abnd dissapears into the woods on the fanily farn, and ater waiting to confront him when he comes back, Mr. Faircloth starts the telling and creating of many worlds that are all connected in the fact that there are a limited number-our world being one of few that are without wonderous and ever shifting atmospheres and creatures of both nightmares and wonder, and the grandson learns that one of the monsterous creatures murdered his wife- he has made it his life's purpose to kill every last one of them, and it becomes their purpose, working together, that's when the pace starts running and its so full of incredible relevations that you (at least I couldn't stop) won't want to stop and will be reading The Outsiders: Book Two as fast as it will download and l read it without stopping and knew there wasn't a Part Three ,so I have since read every book Brandon Faircloth has written except "On The Hill and Other Tales of Horror-which I found while looking through his biooks trying to decide if I wanted to reread some of them-that's one constant in his other novels, they are all in parts set in one of the 5 realms, so there is a very interesting link and what hope wasn't the final ending of these realms in The Outsiders: Books One & Two, but a new beginning tat is based on lands created bit by bit in several wonerful collections of short stories.
