“Sometimes, I even remember what normal feels like, but it never lasts.” Normalcy is hard to come by in Seth Parker's novel, God of the Buried, yet madness and obsession abound. The story unfolds in Morning Veil, a small town steeped in history and home to many, including a tortured and broken mind bent on revenge. This individual watches his prey, Trent Pierce, and plans to exact vengeance for the loss of the bride he never had. As he meticulously follows Trent, he learns everything there is to know about him while plotting his demise. But something goes wrong. The hunter becomes the hunted, and Trent may not be evil, just broken. As the two men face off in a dance of death, both see what they want to see and hear what they want to hear, proving once and for all that reality is an illusion.
God of the Buried by Seth Parker is an outstanding and benchmark-setting psychological thriller that blew me out of the water. The story follows a man on a quest for revenge for a loved one, seeking to deliver justice to a villain, until the plot takes a turn, transforming into something entirely different (and no, I won’t spoil the surprise). The novel explores dark themes, including madness and obsession, but it also offers a glimmer of hope, creating a fascinating yet morbid tale. Character development is exceptional, particularly Trent and his mysterious stalker, who are both complex and multidimensional individuals. The fast-paced, adrenaline-fueled narrative binds the story together, crafting an exquisitely eerie atmosphere that draws you in. For fans of thrillers, this is a remarkable work that will linger in your memory for a long time. I highly recommend it.
