Lord of the Feast
ByPublisher Description
Readers of Clive Barker’s The Great and Secret Show, Laird Barron’s The Croning or Steve Rasnic Tem’s Blood Kin will love this new Tim Waggoner chiller
Twenty years ago, a cult attempted to create their own god: The Lord of the Feast. The god was a horrible, misbegotten thing, however, and the cultists killed the creature before it could come into its full power. The cultists trapped the pieces of their god inside mystic nightstones then went their separate ways. Now Kate, one of the cultists’ children, seeks out her long-lost relatives, hoping to learn the truth of what really happened on that fateful night. Unknown to Kate, her cousin Ethan is following her, hoping she’ll lead him to the nightstones so that he might resurrect the Lord of the Feast – and this time, Ethan plans to do the job right.

“This is not my first book of this author and it's no wonder I keep jumping on every opportunity to read them.
Every book is a different journey into horror and Lord of the Feast doesn't fail to deliver! The story has a cult, a dysfunctional family and lots of weird characters, transporting the reader into a bizarre voyage through pain and death, the philosophical meaning of entropy and the pull towards oblivion.
The thread keeping all this together is family, albeit a very fucked up one... In pursuit of giving life once again to the Lord of the Feast, Ethan is tasked to find all its pieces, and so is Kate, but for a different purpose, trying to stop the cult from succeeding.
Throughout this sick and twisted hide and seek, we cleverly learn how the Lord pieces came to be in the first place, and we get a glimpse into the twisted minds of Kate's and Ethan's families, as well as learning of dark magic and other realities.
I loved this book and once again I wasn't disappointed by Tim Waggoner's inventive mind and clear writing. I liked all the bizarre characters, and some scenes and descriptions reminded me of Quentin Tarantino's and Tim Burton's characters or scenes. I also appreciated how much dark and perverse humour there is, lifting the reader's mood and allowing them to feel some attachment to even the most hideous characters.
This will appeal to any horror lover that like the twisted and the weird, that like a giggle amidst the dread and an unexpected ending.
Thanks to the author, Flame Tree Press and RandomThingsTours for a copy and this is my honest opinion.”

“What a book! Such a wild ride!
Kate's family were a cult who tried and failed to bring The Lord of the Feast to life, which would end the omniverse. When the ritual failed, the house burned to the ground and most of Kate's family were either dead or changed. Years later, one of the surviving member decides to try again and has to collect all the parts of the Lord. She sends Ethan, Kate's cousin out to get them. Kate is also trying to gather them to prevent this happening again. Thus ensues a race to see who gets them all. With plenty of gore, this is a fantastic horror. And the ending was perfect!”
