I liked this book, I'm a sucker for Jonny Sims and his use of patterns and categories in horror. But this book got a little bit repetitive sometimes, as if only the relevant happenings in the plot line were piled on top of each other, and the resolution wasn't as satisfying as it could have been (the solution came somewhat suddenly and there were still a lot of unanswered questions at the end). Still, the writing style, the characters and the story itself are completely brilliant, and you bet I'll be looking out for the rest of Jonny's work.
