Publisher's summary

An all-new official, original novel from the twisted world of the hit horror video game, Bendy and the Ink Machine!

Seventeen-year-old Buddy Lewek has spent most of his life trying to escape the Lower East Side slums of New York City.Working as a delivery boy to support his family, Buddy wants to become an artist, a dream he’s sure will never be realized. But that all changes when a delivery job puts him face-to-face with Mister Joey Drew, the eccentric owner of an animation studio. Mister Drew takes Buddy under his wing as an apprentice, thrusting him into a world unlike anything Buddy has ever seen before. There’s the colorful cast of the studio, from the cranky, yet driven composer Sammy Lawrence to the cheerful voice actress Allison Pendle to Dot, the writing intern and Buddy’s counterpart. After his first glamorous studio party, Buddy starts to think that maybe it’s really as simple as Mister Drew says: Dreams do come true. But not everything at the studio is as picture-perfect as it seems...

Something is going bump in the night at Joey Drew Studios, something that leaves behind trails of thick, dark ink. While the studio frantically works toward their latest deadline, Buddy and Dot team up to find out just what is tormenting the studio after-hours, even if it means tracking the trail to Mister Drew himself.

Don't miss this official pulse-pounding story from award-winning author Adrienne Kress!

Basic Story

I found the main character uninteresting and submissive while Dot was a Marysue, who was perfect, which made cringe at her geass ability to control people. Overall the story had some nice lines but the weight of the story versus game story is negligible at worst and boring at best

Feel like this book should get a three-part series that happens after he becomes wherever he is at the end

Awesome link in to the games.

I'm a huge fan of the "Bendy" franchise, when I first played the video game that this book ties in with, I was so blown away by the story and gameplay, and this book is a perfect prequel to it, I really want more "Bendy" that's the honest truth! I'm really looking forward to the sequel novel to it, Adrienne's writing and Christopher's performance gives this story true justice, everyone needs to experience the mysteries of the "Bendy" franchise, I suggest to play the first game "Bendy and The Ink Machine " before reading this, it'll help you to appreciate this novel way better, you will not be disappointed.
