Will Wilder #1: The Relic of Perilous Falls, by Raymond Arroyo

(Paperback, 352 pages, first published in 2016)

Will Wilder didn’t mean to unlock his otherworldly gift. But that is exactly what happens when Will “borrows” a sacred relic believed to protect the town of Perilous Falls for nearly a century. Even though his intentions are good, the impulsive twelve-year-old unwittingly awakens an ancient evil endangering all of Perilous Falls. As boats sink and hideous creatures crawl from the rising waters, it is up to Will to confront a nightmarish enemy and set things right before it is too late. Along with his sweet—if lethal—great-aunt Lucille, the curator of a museum of supernatural artifacts, Will proves that the actions of one twelve-year-old boy can change the world.

Cautions: "Violence (not overly graphic, but the demons and monsters might be too intense for sensitive readers)." —Redeemed Reader. See full review here
