This was my least favorite of his books so far... I didn't think the writing was very strong and I think it relied too much on metal references.

Grady Hendrix has clever ideas.  This book had a few of them and a couple of tense, scary moments.

this book took me a long time to finish, i just could not get myself to pick it back up once i’d stopped. 
around the 60-70% mark it got a lot better, but its a fight to get there.
i’ve read some grady hendrix before, and i’d definitely say he has much better books to read.
