A wonderfully written book by Bentley Little. Gripping tale of a young man who grows up in an indifferent family with no real friends to become an accomplished writer. Exactly what he accomplishes is unclear however his talent for the written word turns into an obsessive vice leading to unfortunate consequences that often reflect terrifying nightmares and personal fears. Although it is a spellbinding book, the end leaves you with a question mark. Almost as if you are looking for one more chapter to finish the story. It feels unfinished and there for slightly unsatisfactory. Otherwise the story from start to finish is incredibly difficult to put down. A great author I've discovered, however I do hope he learns to finish these great amazing stories.

Erie book...like all of Bentley Little's books...he is a new favorite author of mine. Always keeps me on the edge of my seat, and I have to keep looking over my shoulders whenever I read one of his books. Highly recommended.

Another gem from this "horror writer's writer." Bentley delivers the goods in this tale of a letter writer who has a bit too much free time on his hands, and a knack for getting into trouble. An excellent read and highly recommended for anyone who wants to stay up late at night glancing over their shoulder every five minutes, and jumping at every little creak and groan in the house.
