What is your take on the newest Little book, "The Academy"? It was ok, but it seemed to plagarize a little bit of the story line from "The University" and the ending was a little too quick and neat. At least that's what i thought. What do you think?

I am a Bentley Little fan, but do have to say he is sort of on again and off again.

Haven't read The Academy yet. I'm a bit behind in my Bentley Little reading.

I have enjoyed a few of his works including The Walking, The Vanishing, The Resort, The Store and The Association, but I could not get into The Academy, I put it aside after a few chapters. Maybe I will return to it if I'm fored.

I loved The Store, The House and The Mailman. His politicised horror appeals to me the most as he takes subjects even more 'everyday' than King and moulds something uniquely disturbing out of them.
