Publisher's summary

"Narrator Avi Roque delivers a perfectly paced performance....seamlessly switching between English, Scottish, and American accents to distinguish the variety of characters."—AudioFile on What Moves the Dead, an Earphones Award winner

The follow-up to T. Kingfisher’s bestselling gothic novella, What Moves the Dead.

Retired soldier, Alex Easton, returns in a horrifying new adventure.

After their terrifying ordeal at the Usher manor, Alex Easton feels as if they just survived another war. All they crave is rest, routine, and sunshine, but instead, as a favor to Angus and Miss Potter, they find themself heading to their family hunting lodge, deep in the cold, damp forests of their home country, Gallacia.

In theory, one can find relaxation in even the coldest and dampest of Gallacian autumns, but when Easton arrives, they find the caretaker dead, the lodge in disarray, and the grounds troubled by a strange, uncanny silence. The villagers whisper that a breath-stealing monster from folklore has taken up residence in Easton’s home. Easton knows better than to put too much stock in local superstitions, but they can tell that something is not quite right in their home. . . or in their dreams.

haunting

What Feasts at Night (Sworn Soldier, #2)
by T. Kingfisher
the audible performance was great. I loved the expression of the reader.
Another dark look at the mysterious world of legends and haunting history. The book shows how our perception of darkness is influenced by our culture. Easton and Angus have returned to Galicia in an attempt to provide Mrs Potter access to mushrooms. They find a mystery in the old hunting lodge that is more dangerous than two old soldiers were prepared for.
I really like the characters and the mystery they set up.

A worthy successor

A worthy follow up to What Moves the Dead. While I didn’t enjoy this one as much as the first, I still thought it was worth reading. The characters were lovable and reasonable, which makes them fun to follow. I also enjoyed the culture created within the book. Elements of the horror from the first book were present here, but this is definitely its own story. I am hoping for a third book in this series!

pretty good spooky story

good gothic vibes, pretty well written, a little bare (needed a bit more meat on it's bones) and a not very satisfying conclusion.

great read, disappointing narration

loved the print book; i found the pronunciation in the audio book distractingly clipped and the word pacing slightly odd. will avoid this narrator in future.

Unexpectedly amazing!

A completely solid sequel to a book I didn’t expect to get a sequel!! The narrator was incredible as the first time and I am sad I do not have more of this world to listen to. Definitely worth your time.

The sophomore that's just as good as the first time

I love Kingfisher and the Sworn Soldier books and this one was as gripping as the first. Easton is such a delightful narrator and spending more time with kan a pleasure. If you like a spooky horror with little gore, Sworn Soldier books will do you right.

Unsettling, in a good way.

The story is well-crafted, and suitably eerie for the genre. Without giving too much of a spoiler, I will say it may be particularly uncomfortable in parts to those of us suffering asthma. Well worth your time.

Better than the first

I liked this book better than the first. The narrator was a little easier to listen to this time around. Overall it was a good listen, a short listen but good.
