Endurance by Jack Kilborn
5.0
This is your typical backwoods, deformed hillbillies terrorizing people premise, but the execution is fantastic. There are a ton of characters in the book, but it's easy to follow along with them all and I quickly took to them and cared about their survival. Once I got into the story, I couldn't put it down. There was so much tension and just wanting to know what was going to happen next.
I don't scare easily, but this book was creeping me out and I was worried I might have nightmares (while I did dream about secret passages, it was more fun than scary).
I usually reserve a 5-star rating for something that I think is truly outstanding literature and think everyone should read, but it's so hard to find a good horror story and I just loved it, so it gets my highest rating. I can't wait to read some of his other works like Afraid and Trapped. So glad he self-published this rather than letting an editor tear this story to pieces.
