For two generations, the rural hill town of Grendel, Kentucky has honored its Faustian bargain with the monster living in its abandoned coal mine: a human sacrifice every season in return for agrarian prosperity. When one town elder breaks this pact, Grendel’s only hope is that its prodigal daughter will return home to face down the creature of her nightmares—and bring her all-female biker gang with her.


Thoughts…..Great series from start to finish, I liked the way it focused more on the character development before heading into the monster. It gives you Sons (though should be Daughters) of Anarchy mixed with Supernatural mixed with 70’s weed culture. There were plenty of surprises along the way to keep you engaged right up to that ending that I didn't see coming at all, one I would really like to see how it would go from there, maybe even into the modern day as a setting. The art style is spot on for the setting and the design of the creature I really liked, simple but effective.


I would give this series a solid 8 out of 10 overall.


If you like this series I would recommend Hotell, Out and Archangel 8
