Sylvania - Paperback

by Will Flynn (Author)

Gay cryptid hunters fight the monsters within.

Austin Trade is a man of many talents, the finest being screwing up his own life. In the red oak backwoods of Northern Appalachia, Austin lived to serve a secret brotherhood of cryptid hunters, until he killed a human.

He swore he'd never come home. But Austin is a liar.

Three years later, two months sober, and one secret heavier, Austin feels like the only part of his hometown that's changed. Moss still fills the granite boulders like caulking. The single gas station still closes at ten, and the voice of his once-best-friend with covert benefits is still the sweetest sound on a summer night. The only difference is that half the people he loved now hate him, and absolutely no one trusts him.

They shouldn't.

In the woods lurks a creature with too many victims and twice as many tentacles. Austin faces crossed loyalties and long-simmering tensions as he teams up with with Cole to kick some monster ass. There's only one problem: the monster ass just might be his own.
