What a fascinating read. I think the first story was my favorite, yet they were all very good. I love the theme of nature and humanity, very unique.

This was a lot better than the first LaRocca I have read, but I still have the feeling this genre isn't entirely for me.

My first Eric LaRocca and I think I'm obsessed with this guy! His books are wild and not for everyone, especially not for the faint of heart. "The only thing more brutal than nature is love." The things that we, and other things in theory, would do for love are wild. Obviously this is horror based, but put yourself in an extreme situation and I'm sure you would do extreme things when it comes to those you love.

Brutal, horrific, and grotesque but that is what you expect from this horror author. If you are looking to be disturbed, this is your book
