Even as a child I read and re-read books like 'Scary Stories To Tell In
The Dark' (all three books) and as a pre-teen I
read countless R.L. Stine books. It's been some time since I've read them, however reading this book, memories of R.L. Stine books come to mind. Not to say this book is for young horror lovers, the main character is held against her will and raped to produce the antichrist. (I suppose in '85 when the book was released, such things were new and not written into the ground, the show more whole Satanic Cult out to produce the Antichrist is a tad bit tired though IMO)
I am interested in other books by this author with the hopes that he has gotten better with time. I see a potentially good writer here and am hoping his other books have a little more to offer. show less

This book started out really well. The prologue was both original and creepy and chapter one was promising. Unfortunately, the book climbed downhill from there. The plot was boring and predictable and the end was a bit of an anti-climax. I won't bother to read this again as I was quite disappointed.

Actually a pretty good plot for a semi-trashy semi-gothic horror novel. It kept my interest. Nuff said.
