Note |
| 12.27.14 | This one was dedicated to people like Stoker and Mary Shelley and Lovecraft and other Cthulhu Mythos writers. That dedication didn't really make much sense until the last 50 pages or so but then it really kicked in. Most of it is easy Stephen King writing... not a ton happens but it's written really well and you immediately empathize with the characters so you float along with the confidence that it will somehow pay off and of course it does. Even if the plot events are a tad familiar, the Lovecraftian stuff at the end is quite evocative and effective. Had it a different ending I probably wouldn't care for it that much but as it is I ended up liking it. I feel like with King and Connelly I will read whatever they put out and find enjoyment with it no questions asked. |
