I really liked this book! As a fan of the series, I kept noticing many references to familiar things. The characters were relatable. Jason kinda reminds me of my younger self. When reading, I did have to re-read some things, but it didn’t take long for me to understand. I liked learning about the world of Freddy’s, and specifically learning about how the springlocks work. Honestly, if I had to name anything I dislike, I’d say that the book is too short! I would, and already have recommended this book to some of my close friends and family. I rate the book a five out of five stars!

More Confused Than Before
I got into FNAF years ago when my two boys started playing the game. At first, I wasn’t impressed but when my youngest son came home with the book and wanted to read it I took notice. My boys are not readers like their mama, so anytime they’ve shown interest in the written word I am all for it, even if it’s not my cup of tea. We started reading The Silver Eyes together, but life ended up getting in the way and we never finished it. One thing that immediately struck me about FNAF was the lore and how Scott Cawthon created FNAF. The evolution of the franchise is fascinating but messy to say the least. After watching a ton of Markiplier game play on YouTube, plus watching the recently released Five Night’s at Freddy’s movie, I decided to pick up The Silver Eyes again and see if I could establish a better foundation behind the lore and gain a better understanding of the story as a whole. I not only read The Silver Eyes but also listened to the audiobook, but I feel like listening to it made it less impactful. The narrator did a decent enough job, but it was blatantly obvious just how elementary the writing is. I know that these stories are geared towards a younger audience, but I do believe it could’ve been better written overall. I finished the novel feeling even more confused than when I began. I tried to come to this novel without any prior knowledge of FNAF lore, but it was hard not to be impartial when I’m already in so deep. I love this franchise, especially since animatronics coming alive is something that has haunted my nightmares since my first trip to Showbiz Pizza, but the lore making no sense is beyond frustrating. I do plan on continuing the series to see if I can come to a better conclusion, but the way things look right now I don’t know if I’ll ever get the answers I’m craving.
