From the first sentence to the last, I Am the Dark That Answers When You Call had me in a chokehold.
Jamison Shea's second installment of the I Feed Her to the Beast series was a vast improvement on the first novel. That's particularly impressive because the first book was very good. The one weakness in that novel was completely rectified in this one. Before, I was disappointed with the level of development in Laure Mesny's significant relationships. The sequel delves into the strained dynamic with her parents, shows the deep complicated bond between her and her close friends, details her exploring romance, and explored her connection with an eldritch god.
All of this quality relationship building strengthened what had already been achieved in the first book. Following Laure as she navigated new challenges was incredibly rewarding. I wish all sequels were this amazing. I'm giving this a solid five stars.
