The Church Beneath the Roots

Stolen Tongues, Book 2

By: Felix Blackwell

Narrated by: Gary Tiedemann

Long before the events of Stolen Tongues . . .

On the Cold Valley Indian Reservation, in the shadow of Pale Peak, Onwe Lopez struggles with the past as much as the present. By day, he watches his people abandon the Old Way as they flock to the local church. By night, he dreams of his childhood friend Akántha, who vanished from the rez decades prior.

Then, catastrophe strikes: a horrific accident brings a stranger to town with stories of unfathomable death. A ghastly figure wanders the night, peering into houses and terrorizing a tribal elder. Hideous whispers emanate from the nearby caves, beckoning Onwe inside—and promising to return everyone he's lost.

The Church Beneath the Roots is the story of a town ravaged by memory, riven by change, and haunted by a sinister presence as old as the mountain itself.

Noomi!

I loved the setting and the creepy pace it keeps hols. Well done Felix Blackwell.

Great Suspense

This feels like a crime novel though it occasionally has decent elements of horror. I much prefer this compared to Stolen Tounges.

outstanding

I loved the story. i felt sorry about the characters, he made me care about them.

Phenomenal follow up to Stolen Tongues

A fantastic follow up and prequel to Stolen Tongues. I love the way Blackwell writes. You can tell the enormous amount of heart and research that went into this book.

good story telling

was a great book with lots of back story I feel like it should have been the first book in the 2 book series tho
