posies23's review against another edition
2.0
Dennis Etchison has written some amazing horror fiction in his time. I would rank some of his short stories as among the best of his generation. With that said, this novel was very disappointing. I kept waiting for something horrific, or even INTERESTING to happen, but just when I thought something was coming, I was let down.
Without spoilers, here's the plot: A decent beginning leads to a plodding middle section and an overly-metaphysical ending. The End.
Etchison is better than this. Grab one of his short story collections to get familiar with his work and read this later as a curiosity.
