Helpful Score: 1
The story begins with 6 best friends. 3 paired off couples. As with most[any] Brian Keene novel the action waits only for you to turn the page. To say who dies first and who survives would give away a GREAT horror story, so I'll just say that the flesh munchers had crude weapons but imaginative deathes/tortures for their victims. An honorable Ob mention, hats off.
The creature/horror/monster in Urban Gothic are described at best as mutants, at worst as homacidal limb ripping pus infected genitals and sores. If I for one moment thought 'Ah God they have gone and put torture porn to page.' I would have sadly have to leave my first ever Brian Keene novel unfinished. But...just as he can bob and weave through 6 main protaganist characters and dozens psyche and then ruthlessly chop them down to size. The antagnosist are able to taunt their victims verbally, phsyically and mentally throughout a house outfitted to maim.
Some parts of the story were abit fanstatic because it was a house in an urban setting but if I just switched over to that 'suspending belief' mode, I was OK. I won't get to fancy with my thoughts on this book. I love the author. He provided me an evening
of leisure horror and again another keeper added to the growing Keene collection.
