Uncanny Times
Uncanny Times | Laura Anne Gilman
2 posts | 1 read | 2 to read
Huntsmen, according to the Church, were damned, their blood unclean, unholy. Yet for Rosemary and Aaron Harker the Church was less important than being ready to stand against the Uncanny as not being prepared could lead to being dead. The year is 1913. America—and the world—trembles on the edge of a modern age. Political and social unrest shift the foundations; technology is beginning to make its mark. But in the shadows, things from the past still move. Things inhuman, uncanny. And the Uncanny are no friend to humanity. But when Aaron and Rosemary Harker go to investigate the suspicious death of a distant relative, what they discover could turn their world upside down—and change the Huntsmen forever

Mehso-so

The first in a new series. Huntsmen are born from union of a creature and a human and tasked with the control of the uncanny. Aaron and Rosemary Harker, brother and sister Huntsmen, are called to investigate murders in Brunson, NY (1913) including a distant cousin, accompanied by their hellhound, Botheration.

The story unfolds VERY slowly, except for the final pages. Jury still out on whether the series is worth following, might read the next.
