Fester was a beautifully disgusting coming of age tale that will make you want to pray to the porcelain god in certain parts.

A very unique sci-fi splatter (quite literally) horror, not for the easily squeamish reader.

It’s the story of a girl named Hope, who goes to live with foster parents after her parents die in a rumored accident. These foster parents are the worst of the worst, more like captors, for they treat Hope like she is a prisoner. The beginning was extremely sad, and infuriating, the thought of a child in those conditions singed me. But you soon realize Hope is smart, and resourceful, and learns to adapt to her not so welcoming environment. Once she starts venturing out, she learns quickly that the world isn’t as it seems, those in her life aren’t who they appear to be, there’s much more to her than she could have ever imagined, and the fate of mankind is directly connected to her.

As a teenage girl trying to survive, will mankind prove worthy enough for her to care?

Merrill David is an amazing writer who really knows how to gross you out in all the right ways. He is especially good at building worlds and scenarios that will make you question your outlook on humanity. Hope learns some pretty profound lessons. And when she meets X there is one conversation in particular that really made me think about how we as humans treat our animals and each other.

At the end of the day we are all Earthlings.

I highly recommend Fester and any other book written by Merrill David, if you can handle extreme horror and gore and gross things. Which I’m learning I really enjoy.

Violet Ashford is an amazing narrator who voiced every character with great distinction.
