Slewfoot - Brom

Slewfoot starts with a young puritan couple trying to make ends meet on their farm. Not too far off, an otherworldly God has awoken to destroy humanity. After a series of unfortunate events, Abitha and this Slewfoot join together to right some wrongs, and wrong some rights.

This book's plot is to constantly beat Abitha down and while I understood the rage felt at the end of the book, I don't appreciate the method to get Abitha her elemental powers. Throughout this book it is known that Abitha has witch like connections to her mother, and all their mothers before that and that fact is thrown out the fucking window once we get to the reckoning in the last 30 pages.

The story was good, but there was much left for me to ponder upon.
