Books like Slewfoot by Brom


Slewfoot, published by Brom, is set in Connecticut in 1666 and centers on Abitha, a recently widowed outcast living in a pious village. An ancient spirit awakens in a dark wood nearby; the wildfolk regard him as Father, slayer, and protector, while the colonists revere him as Slewfoot, demon or devil. When Abitha seeks aid, she finds it in this mysterious being and together they ignite a conflict between pagan and puritan beliefs. The battle threatens to destroy the village, leaving nothing but ashes and bloodshed in its wake, as the old adage goes: “If it is a devil you seek, then it is a devil you shall have!”
