My husband just released a new grimdark. I'd love for you to check it out.
Chaste: A Tale from Perilisc When her devout parents died, Cheryl turned her back on her god. Years of denial and self-loathing have defeated her. Her life consists of taking orders and succumbing to abuse. A group of strangers stops in Chaste for the night, but an unnamed threat is preying on the town. Tragic deaths have become more and more frequent. Cheryl wants to protect these travelers, expose the evil force, and save her fellow citizens, but she must find a way to believe in hope.
We're seeking reviewers and readers for it. A couple of book reviewers started it and then weren't comfortable with the violence in it. It faces abuse and doesn't pull any punches. It's quite intense and well worth the read.
The religions and gods in it are original to the author's world. It's not a book that's trying to convert the reader to any set of beliefs. There are several characters struggling to find hope in a hopeless situation, and they all go about it in different ways. Some of them believe in the god of their choice and others don't.
