![]() ![]() From what I can tell, though, this book is much more a Sleepy Hollow continuation as opposed to a strict retelling. I watched a few episodes of a Sleepy Hollow tv show years ago, but have never delved much deeper into it, so most of what I know comes from pop culture references to the Headless Horseman. I actually don’t know the legend of Sleepy Hollow very well. Could the Horseman be real after all? Or does something even more sinister stalk the woods? What did I think? But then Ben and a friend stumble across the headless body of a child in the woods near the village, and the sinister discovery makes Ben question everything the adults in Sleepy Hollow have ever said. Fourteen-year-old Ben loves to play “Sleepy Hollow boys,” reenacting the events Brom once lived through. Twenty years after those storied events, the village is a quiet place. Brom says that’s just legend, the village gossips talking. Not even Ben Van Brunt’s grandfather, Brom Bones, who was there when it was said the Horseman chased the upstart Crane out of town. About the book:Įveryone in Sleepy Hollow knows about the Horseman, but no one really believes in him. It has not affected my honest review.Ĭontent Warnings: gore, blood, violence, animal death, character death, sexual harassment, attempted assault, period typical racism, transphobia and homophobia, misgendering and deadnaming. ![]() Thanks to Titan Books for the eARC of this book. ![]()
