Mister B. Gone68 reviews Clive Barker HarperCollins, 2007 imaginative & original + Do not Start Your Barker Experience with this Book, but Still an Enjoyable, Satirical Read. + Idiot reviewers I very much enjoyed this story. I know of no other book that uses this "gimmick". It is definitely written in the style of Clive Barker, but has a toungue and cheek feel reminiscent of the short story "The Yattering and Jack" also by Barker. I believe this book would be a good read for both ...             99 Coffins: A Historical Vampire Tale6 reviews David Wellington Three Rivers Press, 2007 A bloody superb tale. + Excellent + Great read. Had me hooked. Better than 13 Bullets. + Better than 13 Bullets + Awesome read!             Ghostwalk59 reviews Rebecca Stott Spiegel & Grau, 2007 An Intellectual Thriller + A gripping thriller + Alchemy works This is not a thriller in the sense of non-stop action. It is, however, a thriller in the sense of a slower-paced novel quite literate and requiring time to savor the unique blending of science and the paranormal and their impact on the characters. On the surface it is a recounting of mysterious ...             Daughter Of Hounds17 reviews Caitlin R. Kiernan Roc Trade, 2007 "Turn Not Pale, Beloved Snail" + Moving Adventure + A book that reads like a freight train + Different, but GOOD different             The Terror: A Novel216 reviews Dan Simmons Little, Brown and Company, 2007 Beyond Wonderful! + The Terror by Dan Simmons + Wonderfully captivating + Chilling and epic             The Nightmare Factory6 reviews Joe Harris, Stuart Moore, ... Harper Paperbacks, 2007 FANTASTIC LIGOTTI ADAPTATIONS + Long overdue exposure for this dark light + Awesome horror graphic novel Thomas Ligotti is really one of the best-kept secrets in the horror field. He's almost a throwback to supernatural writers of days gone by who could scare you without having to resort to blood & guts. Besides that, Ligotti is a fellow Detroiter and I've recently found we attended the same college, ...             Let Me In6 reviews John Ajvide Lindqvist Thomas Dunne Books, 2007 A riveting, tense thriller + Impressive Writing and Story-Telling + Not really a vampire book. + Victims and Victimizers + unique addition to vampire literature             The Judas Strain: A Novel97 reviews James Rollins William Morrow, 2007 Book Review: The Judas Strain by James Rollin + None stop action with a weird ending The Judas Strain by James Rollins Review by SpeekNDaTruuf There's a virus threatening to eradicate most, if not all, of mankind, and only one woman can stop it; however, capturing and securing this woman is no easy task. There are historians and scientists, alike, attempting to apprehend the ...             The Undead Kama Sutra8 reviews Mario Acevedo Eos, 2008 Another fun romp with vampires, sexual inuendo, and pleanty of humor + Great Fun + Acceptable reading Acevedo has an interesting "take" on modern day vampirism. This story is no exception. I found that this story had enough references to previous happenings that it would not be fully required to read the other stories first. Might as well read them though as they are also highly entertaining. ...             Mina3 reviews Marie Kiraly Berkley Trade, 2007 Mina + Enjoyed this book! Mina by Marie Kiraly (Elaine Bergstrom) is of the style very much as Bram Stoker wrote Dracula. It was though Ms Kiraly/Bergstrom was there by his side picking up the thread that Stoker left behind. Any true fan of the Dracula story will find this an exceptional addition to the Bram Stoker's tale ...             The Hellbound Heart: A Novel61 reviews Clive Barker Harper Paperbacks, 2007 One of the Top 10 Horror Novellas + Can you put the puzzle box down? + Books are always better than the movies + Hellbound is Heavensent + A beautiful (terrifying) edition             20th Century Ghosts42 reviews Joe Hill William Morrow, 2007 Haunted Characters, Haunting Stories... + Genetics? + Indelible images + Not much of a short story lover, but...             The Nymphos of Rocky Flats: A Novel41 reviews Mario Acevedo Eos, 2006 Serious vampire author... While the title and cover may throw you, please read this book. Felix Gomez is a private detective who also is a vampire. Kind of common at first, right? But Mario Acevedo is taking the story, the idea of vampires, and other supernatural creatures seriously. While the plot may seem a tad weird, ...             The Book of Air and Shadows91 reviews Michael Gruber William Morrow, 2007 Engaging but not one for the ages If you like the DaVinci Code / Angels and Demons type of book this one will be for you - it is certainly better written than either of those, features more complete characters, and the mystery at its center is very enjoyable. But some of the characters are overly detailed but not really persons, ...             Gecko29 reviews Jack Priest Bootleg Press, 2003 Beware the cute little gecko... + Ludlum meets King meets Rollins + These little lizards are definitely not cute! + Half creature feature, half rogue-cop procedural             Firefly Rain (Discoveries)11 reviews Richard Dansky Wizards of the Coast Discoveries, 2008 Haunting + Good Old Fashioned Ghost Story! + Rural NC at its finest Quiet and subtle, Richard Dansky's first novel is quite ambitious. Dansky effectively weaves southern chills and small-town secrets within this compelling thriller. When Jacob Logan reluctantly moves home many years after the death of his parents, he soon finds that someone or something doesn't ...             Silk108 reviews Caitlin R. Kiernan Roc Trade, 2002 Beautifully Dark & Creepy; Poetically Written. + Decent read for a rainy day + An Amazing Read Caitlin Kiernan has a beautiful voice and it resonates throughout this dark novel. Kiernan's descriptions of the South, rock music, and the young outsiders that largely make up her cast of characters are all beautifully fleshed out, and her wonderfully disturbing tale will crawl into your mind and ...             Halting State46 reviews Charles Stross Ace Hardcover, 2007 Remarkable, possibly prophetic + A really pleasant surprise + Fun and Games As a fan and sometime inhabitant of Second Life, my first reaction to this book was a solid "Whoa!" The basic premise is that a robbery has taken place in a virtual setting. How did the criminals get in? Of what value is the stolen treasure? Amazingly, millions of dollars are at risk. This ...             Faces of Fear: A Novel2 reviews John Saul Ballantine Books, 2008 After a decade as a fan, John Saul continues to keep me coming back! + Very good but predictable Speaking as someone who has been a fan of John Saul since reading COMES THE BLIND FURY over a decade ago, I am still intrigued at how the author continues to surprise and entertain his readers with each new release. FACES OF FEAR gives you everything you yearn for in a J.S. book: the highs and lows ...             Ghost: A Novel16 reviews Alan Lightman Pantheon, 2007 Aptly Named "Ghost" Review of: Ghost By: Alan P Lightman Published: 2007 The story is aptly named "Ghost" because it gives the reader a lot to think about while showing only a glimpse of its mystery. Like all good ghosts this apparition gives us just a peek. The "Ghost" gives David (the protagonist and ...
