The Devil's Colony | Bill Schweigart
3 posts | 2 read | 4 to read
The greatest monster is man. From the author of The Beast of Barcroft and Northwoods comes a chilling descent into the depths of horror and human depravity. Ben McKelvie had a good job, a nice house, a beautiful fiancée . . . until a bloodthirsty shapeshifter took everything away. Ever since, he’s been chasing supernatural phenomena all across the country, aided by dedicated zoologist Lindsay Clark and wealthy cryptozoologist Richard Severance. Now they face their deadliest challenge yet. In the New Jersey Pine Barrens, a man named Henry Drexler operates a private compound called Välkommen, which is Swedish for “welcome.” Indeed, Drexler welcomes all visitors—so long as they’re racists, neo-Nazis, or otherwise in cahoots with the alt-right. But Drexler is no mere Hitler wannabe. Once he was Severance’s mentor, and his research may well have summoned a monster to the Pine Barrens. To find out the truth, Ben and Lindsay must enter the camp incognito. There, under the watchful eyes of Drexler’s bodyguards and sociopathic son, they will learn that the most dangerous beasts lurk in the human heart. Don’t miss any of Bill Schweigart’s gripping supernatural thrillers: THE BEAST OF BARCROFT | NORTHWOODS | THE DEVIL’S COLONY “Readers who appreciate a B-movie sensibility, affable characters, and a sense of fun along with their scares will find much to enjoy.”—Publishers Weekly, on The Beast of Barcroft “[An] appealing and original series . . . With its vivid descriptions and realistic but sympathetic characterizations, Northwoods will stay with the reader long after the last page is turned.”—New York Journal of Books

A group of paranormal investigators have to infiltrate a white supremacists' camp in order to determine whether they're using supernatural creatures to start a holy race war. This is the third book in a trilogy, which I wish I'd known going in, as it would've made way more sense. Also, the ending was super anticlimactic.

Foxyfictionista I read this title as Devil's Colon. Now that would be an interesting (and possibly gruesome) story. 7y
JacintaMCarter @Foxyfictionista I would totally read that. 7y

I very tired today after staying up late to finish this as part of the #slaythatseriesreadathon. Very good #horror novel that questions if the human monsters are far worse than any cryptid monsters.

I'm hoping to finish this #horror novel tonight for #slaythatseriesreadathon. Goodreads doesn't list it as a series but it's the same characters from the first two books so that counts in my mind at least.
