Ray Sanders returns home from Florida to bury his mother. Soon, the supernatural evidence behind his mother’s demise begins to surface in the form of dreams and mysterious happenings. During all of the madness, Sanders must face his destiny and vanquish the generations-old evil that has plagued his family since the 1800s....

In 1854, Louis Sanders, with the help of Elias Atkins, dug a well to provide water to the family farm. What they did not anticipate was the water to be infested with Odomulites - ancient sins. These malevolent beings were trapped in our world on their way to the spirit world and formed a pact of protection with both Sanders and Atkins: The families would serve as guardians of the Odomulite nests and in return, a blind eye would be cast when the Odomulites took host bodies to inhabit and feed upon. It was this pact, which in 2016 would propel Sanders and Julie Fontaine - a young woman with a special connection to the Spirit World - into the heart of the last active nest to rid the town of its insidious Odomulite population.

I think James Watts is confused about genres: 'Them' is marketed as horror, but the author clearly wants to write more literary fiction. This is evidenced by his penchant for similes and flowery descriptive passages that only serve to annoy this listener who spent a credit on a straightforward scary story and not pretentious prose . Incongruous to all of this is that the novel is speckled with unnecessary crudeness which just makes it all the more discordant. So, in my humble opinion, a stringent editor and a decision as to which genre he prefers will help Mr. Watts hone his talent. Meanwhile, Daniel Caravetta does a good job narrating.

Too overwritten.
