I’d planned to ration #Wyrdwood over Halloween but kept getting into a “one-more-chapter” situation. Now I’ve finished it early. @curtisjobling.bsky.social evokes a wonderful sense of place. I love the way the scares build up to a perfect storm of action and thrills. Immersive, thorny folk horror.

Had to record a video to do justice to #Wyrdwood's spangly copper edges. 😍 This cover by @alicecaoillo.bsky.social has to be one of my favourite children's book covers of recent times. I can't wait to get stuck in, @curtisjobling.bsky.social!

Whispers in the playground abound – a spring-heeled phantom haunts the edge of the Wyrdwood, the ancient forest which surrounds the sleepy coastal town. But the Twig Man is the least of Kiki Harper’s concerns.

#Wyrdwood A creepy, atmospheric story set in a secluded island village. Think #Lovecraft #Gaiman #Priestley ❤️💀

Prepare for dead bodies, old legends and sinister happenings.
You will not want to put this down.

Thanks @netgalley.bsky.social
Two boughs of a large twisted tree reach out across the image from the left. Through the bare branches you can see a harbour with a lighthouse, pier and a few houses. The book title and author are printed on large fabric banners that are placed around the boughs at the top and bottom of the page. The artists uses sepia, grey and brown umber colours to suggest that it is dark, the lighthouse light is just visible. They have used a pen technique, like on etchings to give texture to the tree, rooftops etc.
