'Thistlebone Book Two: Poisoned Roots' by T.C. Eglington and Simon Davis is a horror graphic novel about how evil never dies.

The events of Harrowvale were a year ago, but for journalist survivor Seema, things are still fresh. When a large oak is uprooted and bones are found and a strange mask, Seema knows it's all starting again and it's pointing to one man - Malcolm Kinniburgh.

This was a crazy ride and not for the faint of heart. The story is pretty intense and the art is gory, but I liked this story of ancient evil that lives in the woods.

After reading the second book, I am feeling like I should have read the first part also. Although the book can be read as a standalone too. As a reader, you can expect a haunting folklore story coming to life in a remote place. The plot has all the chills and thrills with some action and backstory. I particularly liked the graphics and the horror element. I am expecting a third sequel eagerly. The only thing which the book lacks is the intensity of horror. I felt that the plot should have been more dark. Definitely, a 4 star read for me. Thanks to Netgalley for providing me an opportunity to read and review the book.
