Usher of the Fallen by L.M. Kaplin
3.25
dark mysterious medium-paced
Plot or Character Driven: A mix
Strong character development: Yes
Loveable characters: No
Diverse cast of characters: No
Flaws of characters a main focus: Yes

Right off the bat - this is not my favorite Kaplin book. I've been reading a ton of cult books lately, and this one missed the mark a bit for me. The addition of the Nephilim was really cool and interesting. Nephilim aren't something I've read about in horror fiction. While I enjoyed the book overall, the ending felt a bit rushed and unsatisfying, and I didn't really connect with any of the characters. 3.25 stars
