The North American Pantheon

As someone who’s read everything there is to read (so far) related to “The North American Pantheon” it’s absolutely everything I’ve been looking for in a series. It’s deep, visceral horror for people who love the thrill of horror but also want the darkness to be lined with hope and kindness. There are almost no characters that the author doesn’t clearly love, and that love makes all of them vibrant and interesting. There’s no side character that I don’t want to learn more about (as much as I might have a moment if “noo I want to learn more about the main plot!!”). It has the “monster of the week” feel of early Supernatural except EVERYTHING is thoroughly researched (cultures, myths, locations). Amidst all of the darkness and horror is a thread of “love will prevail” that never snaps. This series has it all. Light, dark, humor, friendship, parental love, sibling love, friendamies, slow burn, fast burn, unhealthy relationships, therapy that works, therapy that doesn’t…. It’s fantastic.
