Don’t trust the other reviews

This is a very well done book with a lot of peaks into the world some of the reviews say that this book is filled with lies and things like that do in the way that the character actually is in the game, though this is supposed to be for the Lore and and general enjoyment the stories are really well done and they are even backed up in the game and gives a lot of evidence into the world of Bendy and the ink machine. So please don’t trust the other reviews saying this book is stupid filled with lies and there’s nothing to do with the game

Surprisingly excellent

After reading the first bendy book, I thought that this book too had to have some supernatural elements. I don't mind them, but this book felt so real without them. It really does feel like a successful businessman memoars from 1900s.
Also the book fits perfectly into the bendy universe with very realistic characters.
Would recommend over the first bendy book, though that one is very good too.

The Voice-Acting

I loved how Tom managed to predict Joey’s voice in Dark Revival, absolutely loved it.

Who is this book for?

I overall enjoyed this story and have never played the bendy video game - but what person asked for this novel?

Im not saying its bad in any way just far different than my expectations -

Damn good.

the title is descriptive of the book. Just read or listen that it! Noice.
