Hill's nightmarish, devilish protagonist is Charlie Manx - who uses his supernatural powers in his ghastly mission to kidnap and kill dozens of children... and to scare the living bejesus out of the readers... This book is well-written, extremely dark and awfully gruesome. Granted, not quite in the same class as his dad - but then again, who is Daily Mail will delight horror/fantasy fans...Steven King's son has the same knack as his dad for telling gruesome magical tales MyM Magazine A deliciously horrific fantasy...the work of a talented and evolving storyteller whose pages sure do turn. The Skinny This is a book that starts with a bang and then relentlessly builds. Joe managed to make my skin crawl in the first chapter, turning what should be a time for celebration into something decidedly creepy. At the mid-point of a lengthy book it became near un-putdownable, in that horrifying 'can't look away from a car crash' kind of way. Although the details are dark and even horrible, the narrative pull is relentless and unstoppable. -- Mark Yon SFFWORLD.COM
