Resumen del Editor

It’s an all-new horror classic about what happens when the truth is the last thing we want to believe, from Bram Stoker Award–winner and master of thrills and chills, horror legend Adam Cesare.

After barely making it out of the Kettle Springs cornfields alive, Quinn’s first year away at college should be safe and easy. All she wants is to be normal again.

But instead, Quinn finds that her past won’t leave her alone when she becomes the focus of online conspiracy theories that claim the Kettle Springs Massacre never happened. It’s a deranged but relentless fantasy, and there’s nothing Quinn can do to get people to hear the truth—not even on her own campus or in her own dorm room.

So when a murderous clown attacks Quinn at a frat party while another goes after her father in Kettle Springs at the same time, Quinn realizes that the facts alone are never going to save her. Her only option is to go back into the cornfields, back where the nightmare began, to set the record straight the only way she knows how. Because when the truth gets lost in the lies, that’s when people start to die.

Clown in a Cornfield was 2020’s Bram Stoker Award Winner for Superior Achievement in a Young Adult Novel. Clown in a Cornfield 2: Frendo Lives is perfectly set to attract old and new fans to the series.

Cesare's done it again!

I didn't think you could put more clown in that cornfield but Adam found a way!

Frendo Lives and it is GLORIOUS!!!

Adam Cesare suppressed the first one with this sequel!! 😩🙌🏿 An AMAZING author. Fantastic with storytelling and the pace of his novels are ON POINT! This sequel was TERRIFYING and the body count....I honestly couldn't keep track lol It had everything I wanted in a horror novel. Love the narrator of these novels. Jesse is PHENOMENAL! I love that he includes LGBTQIA+ characters in this book series. As a Black, gay man who loves the horror genre, I feel seen!! Thank you!! Thank you!!! Looking forward to his next novel. 😍👍🏿👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾

Favorite book of the year

Love the characters, the setting, and the narrator’s voice. All of the elements weave together into a great atmosphere to be immersed in for hours. Have listened to it multiple times already just for the experience rather than the story. Would recommend for anyone in their teens and twenties looking for a halloween/corn maze themed action story.

a weak fellow up

I didn't enjoyed it as much as the first one. the last few chapters was a shore to get through

not as good as the first

overall it wasn't bad. it kept me interested but it felt too slow the first 2/3rds of the book and then rushed the last part. but the ending was great and I hope a 3rd one comes soon.

Still great, but not as good as the first

The narrator was fantastic, just as she was last time. While I really enjoyed the story and while there were still some deaths and carnage, it was not nearly to the same degree or on the same level as the previous book. And the twist, while frightening, was not nearly as enjoyable as the previous book as well. Still has that aspect of social commentary which I liked, but also seemed lacking in lots of areas. Overall, this was a great and fun read and I would still recommend it to those who enjoyed the first one, but it certainly is way less slasher than the first and more death-just-kinda-is-happening-for-random-reasons. The ending, too, was a bit disappointing and felt rushed, mostly the epilogue-ish area after everything has already happened and we see what's happened to the characters. I still very much enjoyed this book, but I just craved more than what it gave, you know?

Fantastic sequel

I can’t believe how well the sequel followed. The suspense and excitement started early and never stopped.

Everyone loves a clown

Not as good as the first but still good. I like the direction the sequel took.

Of Course Friendo Lives

Adam Cesare took everything that worked for the first “Clown in a Cornfield” and dialed it up to 11. I don’t usually get too scared with horror books but this was an anxiety-ridden thrill ride that took all the things that I find truly scary in this world and gave them the stage. There’s nothing scarier to me than crazy conspiracy theory people from the internet, and when you throw a clown mask onto that, it opens the door for some pretty scary shit. Quinn is STILL a baddie, and I would happily let her take the final girl reigns any day.

i don’t normally write reviews

loved it! didn’t see how a sequel was going to be that interesting so i wasn’t in much of a rush to listen, a nice surprise, loved the Jeri (spelling?) character, narration was great.
