This Apocalyptic Bigfoot Story Is Actually INSANE!
from Fantasy for the Ages · host Jim Scriven
What happens when you take Bigfoot… and drop it into an apocalyptic survival nightmare in Alaska? Yeah—Devils Desk by Mark Tufo goes there. And honestly? I did NOT expect to enjoy this one as much as I did.In today’s Fantasy for the Ages review, I’m breaking down why this cryptid horror story completely surprised me, despite being a longtime Tufo fan. If you’ve read Zombie Fallout, you already know the vibe: sharp humor, great characters, and chaos lurking around every corner. But this one? It leans harder into creature horror, high-stakes survival, and a setting that makes everything feel even more dangerous.We’ll cover:• Book details and reception• Why I finally picked this one up (after ignoring it for way too long)• A spoiler-lite synopsis• 9 reasons you might LOVE this book• Reasons it might not be for everyone• And my final verdict—who this is REALLY forPlus, we’ll talk about the connection to Devolution by Max Brooks… and why I might actually prefer this one 👀⚠️ Fair warning: This is not the best place to start with Mark Tufo, but if you’re already a fan? This might be one of his most fun and underrated reads.⸻👍 If you enjoy fantasy, sci-fi, and horror reviews, be sure to LIKE and SUBSCRIBE!💬 Let me know in the comments—have you read Devils Desk?
