Like a first nations’ legend meets H.P. Lovecraft. The peril is never defined beyond the malignant influence exerted on the people trying to live in late 19th century wilderness Canada. It was an interesting ride, but the destination was a bit of an enigma - weird solely for the sake of being weird. Sometimes that’s good, but this book didn’t pull it off.

Vol 2 brings Wei Wuxian and Lan Wanjii further on their quest to quiet the dismembered arm from vol 1, with the introduction of additional villains along the way. With a universe of undefined magic with rules made up as the author goes, the outcomes are not entirely satisfying, but our protagonists are likeable and get out of scrapes using the same non-rules based preternatural abilities. With an answer close at hand, the quest continues and an escape ushers in Vol 3.
