The Hellion: Malus Domestica #3 Kindle Edition

by S. A. Hunt (Author) Format: Kindle Edition
4.4 out of 5 stars 21 ratings

For fans of Chilling Adventures of Sabrina and Stranger Things: S. A. Hunt’s The Hellion, third installment of their horror-tinged action-adventure series about a punk YouTuber on a mission to hunt down the supernatural, one vid at a time

Robin Martine has destroyed witches all across the country, but since her confrontation with the demon Andras, Robin has had to deal with her toughest adversary yet: herself. While coming to grips with new abilities, she and her boyfriend Kenway make their way to the deserts of rural Texas, where new opportunities await.

Something lurks in this isolated town of Keystone Hills: a dangerous gang ruled by a husband who wields an iron fist over his wife and daughter. Robin vows to protect these Latina women from harm, but may be underestimating how powerful Santiago Valenzuela is... and how his shapeshifting powers may pose a threat to everyone Robin holds dear.

Review

“Hunt returns to form in the exhilarating third Malus Domestica fantasy (after I Come with Knives), which reignites the series’s fire with intense action sequences and surprising twists and turns. …series fans and new readers alike will enjoy the gripping, high-stakes plot as Robin comes face-to-face with unprecedented enemies and her own demon side. This is sure to entertain.” ―Publishers Weekly

Praise for Burn the Dark:

“Burn the Dark is a brilliant debut! S. A. Hunt gets everything right about the creepier aspects 21st digital culture and presents a compelling and memorable female lead.” ―Jonathan Maberry, New York Times bestselling author of V-Wars and Glimpse

“S.A. Hunt is a kickass storyteller conquering the zone between fantasy and horror. Keep an eye on this one, because they're just getting started.” ―New York Times bestselling author Chuck Wendig

“S. A. Hunt's Burn the Night is a bold, sharp, fresh take on urban fantasy that brings it into the 21 century. The characters feel real and their flaws make them beautiful. The world building is impressive and immersive, the prose is sharp and tight, and the scary is damn scary. It's a lot of fun!” ―R. S. Belcher, author of Brotherhood of the Wheel and M. I. B. International (novelization)

“Immaculate worldbuilding drives this atmospheric series opener from Hunt....With a detailed setting and an ear for dialogue, Hunt captures a distinct feeling of Southern Americana.” ―Publishers Weekly

“Snappy dialogue and a Southern Gothic setting evocative of Charlaine Harris' Sookie Stackhouse books. Robin is a distinctly modern new heroine....Likely to delight readers looking for a new twist in their horror picks.”―Booklist

    The last few chapters of this one might be enough for me to bump this up to a four-star rating, so I reserve the right to do so (he says to himself).

    In any case, I thought this installment of the Malus Domestica was good, not great, as I would classify the two before it. Those "in the know" about this series are already aware, but for anyone who isn't, this series was originally one (very good) self-published book. Hunt was approached by Tor who wished to publish her story traditionally as a trilogy. And so what you have is that original story split into the first two books, and this story, The Hellion as the next piece of the puzzle, continuing on from where the original story left off.

    All that being the case, I thought that this book lacked the cohesive nature that the first two possessed. It felt like a glorified side-quest, in a way, which it was. Journey before destination and all that, I'm not saying I didn't enjoy the ride. But I found myself missing absent characters from the first two books. I also wanted to continue to explore certain elements in this story right away that took almost the entire length of the book to finally rear their head (or should I say horns?) In addition, I felt like the tone was off--almost like Hunt couldn't nail down how she wanted the book (and the characters within it) to feel at times. So ultimately, I think I was witnessing a lack of polish due to this being an add-on story to a nicely packaged original.

    Now, that aside I did enjoy the book. And as I mentioned above, the last several chapters or so were really fun. The weird cosmic-horror worldbuilding was on full display, as Hunt began to open up certain aspects of the story in ways that have me itching to see what happens next. And that's important to note. My earlier criticisms not withstanding, I definitely want to continue the series. So I hope she's writing more.

    Anyone reading this review has likely read the two books before this one, so it probably doesn't need repeating but the Malus Domestica is just pure fun. A fantasy/horror romp with quirky characters with attitude. Half-demons, shapeshifters, ancient daggers, goddesses of the underworld. If you're looking for something fun and quick--and you don't shy away from a dose of twisted darkness--it's worth your time.

    Another excellent addition to this great series. It's fast paced, action packed, gritty and highly entertaining.
    It's full of violence but it's the type of violence that somehow reminds you of an action movie.
    The author is a talented storyteller and delivers an excellent world building and character development.
    I hope this is going to be a long series because I had a lot of fun.
    It's strongly recommended.
    Many thanks to the publisher and Netgalley for this ARC, all opinions are mine
