Critic reviews

"The twists and turns of the plot kept the story moving at a steady pace. While primarily a young adult novel, this book ventures into the realms of Stephen King-esque gore and Gothic horror. Comeau skillfully leads the narrative to a climactic unraveling of the mystery behind the Darklings’ reign of terror. The finale is brilliantly executed, leaving an indelible mark in the realm of young adult fiction with its ingenious and mind-bending resolution. Nameless vs. The Army of the Dead is not just a thrilling read but an exploration of courage, camaraderie, and the fight against overwhelming darkness."—Committee for the Literary Titan Book Award.

Very Cool Story Set in a Dark World

I am a huge fan of this genre, so of course I loved this story! I found the story to be very inspirational and heroic. What I found fascinating about the performance, was the production of the sounds that were blended with the narration such as music, crowd noise, shoes running, and stones being kicked. It really brought the story to life and helped me envision the scenes in my head in a delightful way. As a bonus, the author provides an excerpt from Book 2 which is called Nameless Vs the Wolf Men of Moonlight Bay. I am very much looking forward to that book as I have even a bigger fan of anything that has to do with Wolf men or Werewolves.
