Psycho: Sanitarium by Chet Williamson

iamdwg's review against another edition

Well, this was a strange book, I'll give it that, but it still kept the mystery strong and did a substantial job at rekindling what made Psycho so special the first time around. It wasn't exactly the way I thought it would go, but it still made a bold choice in direction that I can completely respect and appreciate at the same time.

I think I need to try it again. I don't feel like I gave it my full attention.

I think i liked this one (1.5) better than the original, but can't wait to see what book 2 holds. This author did a good job of moving Norman Bates forward. More than a few unexpected twists.

Bagaimana jika kepala didiami oleh banyak persona: semua saling berebut untuk menjadi alpha & kemudi utama.

Kalau nak tahu kehidupan penjenayah yang ditempatkan di institut mental, bacalah Psycho: Sanitarium ini.

Great

A wonderful continuation of a classic story about American treatment of psychiatric conditions. Great use of Bloch's character Norman and wonderful tie in to the second of the Psycho series

No, pro dokonalý příběh Normana Batese už byl vyčerpán limit několika knih, kdy jen ta první, dle mého, si svou slávu zaslouží. Nebylo to nejhorší, ale prostě to nejlepší už bylo napsáno.

I really enjoyed this book! I went into it not expecting much because it's not by Robert Bloch, the original author of the Psycho novels but honestly, I enjoyed it just as much as the original Psycho novel! I chose to read this book in between Psycho and Psycho II since it's written that way chronologically. I plan to read Psycho II and Psycho House by Robert Bloch next.
