Polymime Studio polymime — I feel torn in trying to think how to review this book. On the one hand, it was effective in creating a sense of horror and feel of a nightmare. On the other hand, many of the characters behaved in annoying and infuriating ways which seriously marred my enjoyment of the book. The reader is thrown into the horror of the situation quite quickly, contrasting noticably with some of his other novels like Midnight Sun in which it was built up most gradually over the length of the novel. Although in this book, one derives as much horror from the behaviour of many of the inhabitants of Moonwell as one does from the one that eventually emerges from the cave on the moor. The problem with building up the tension so quickly in a horror novel is that it then has to be sustained through to the end and that can (and did) get quite exhausting. By the end, I had had enough of characters clambering in the dark, glimpsing horrors and being driven insane with fear. Which I guess is why I tend to prefer horror in the short story form. So, a mixed experience for me with this one. It did what a horror novel needs to do but not really in the way I like it delivered.

Rutfeed Tv rutbroken4c982 — I like this series. It has interesting characters and a different plot. The big problem I have is that Harrison badly needs a good editor. There are major flow issues with most of the books in this series. At times, the actions of characters are disjointed and don't make sense. Someone will be in the kitchen one second and in the other room in another without any indication of them moving. The dialogue has that same problem. SOmetimes you feel as if you have walked into the middle of a conversation and passages have to be read over and over before you get the gist of what is going on. Harrison also has problems with her characters staying in character. One book will portray a character as a unreemable bad guy in one buy, but hey guess what-in the next he is saving everyone. I'm not saying characters are either good or bad, but they need to act concistently not like the author can't make up his/her mind. I admit she has come along way from the first book in the series. Now she needs to go back and do some rewrites.
