If it wasn't for Diggory Finch, the towns of Twin Falls would've been eaten alive by a incursion of monsters from the unthinkable beyond. Not that he's a hero, per se. It's more than he strung enough mistakes together in a row that something good happened, and wiped them off the face of the planet using the torrent of evil power that channels through him.
Heavy stuff.
But now, in the peaceful wake of a near-apocalypse, he finds himself falling in love with Alisha, starting up a gaming store in the family warehouse, and dealing with the Machiavellian eldirtch manipulations of the twelve founding families of Twin Falls: all of whom want something from him, and the power his family somehow controls.
And if that wasn't enough, Diggory and the cults of his hometown have no idea that when he sent those abominations away, he totally tore a hole in the barrier that keeps the really bad things out, and one of them slipped into town.
And that thing really, really wants to give Diggory a kiss.
Welcome to The Twelve: book two of The Darkness of Diggory Finch, a Lovecraftian eldritch horror series set in New England, filled with inappropriate humor, more gore than your average story, and more than a few moments that will leave you uncomfortable.

The story is definitely not a stand-alone and really should be read in order as this one really drops readers into the deep-end and if you're not paying attention, you might drift away as a lot of info is tossed at you and sometimes muddles the story being told but as a book 2 in a trilogy, that's typically what happens to set up the last book but boy does Chris have a lot of ideas crammed into one world (or multiple).
Wow that's a lot of info

This book is even more amazing than the first, with a very fun nod to another book series by philbrook.
Highly recommend
Fantastic book series

The various characters from the first book are developed so well throughout book 2 and plenty of new ones appear that were only vaguely alluded to previously. I really can’t wait to find out more.
This would make for an amazing tv series btw. Prime video should be snapping it up.
The narration throughout the audiobook is also great which only enhances my enjoyment of the story.
The gods and ancient entities juxtaposed with modern day life is very reminiscent of Gaiman’s American gods. However, the family affiliates/devotions to each ‘god’, the whole ‘conduit’ Finch family connection, the mysterious new Indian faction, the historical events shrouded in mystery & intrigue just seem to be the tip of the iceberg of this ambitious, far reaching tale.
Very much looking forward to book 3.
Book 3… when? Soon please!
