It’s also EXTREMELY slow to start. For the first 100 pages not much happens and it’s a lot of set up. But keep with it because it ramps up after that.
I’m not sure if I liked Ketchum’s style of writing. Sometimes he writes very eloquently and beautiful and then he talks about cocks and breasts. It was a little jarring but this is novel with very mature and violent themes. It also seemed very slow because there was little dialogue throughout the book.
Overall, I enjoyed this novel and horror would also like it.

Everything about this fell a bit flat for me. No character depth, weak plot line, no back story to our villains. Just some horny folks in a cabin in the woods, and a disgruntled police officer who should have retired ages ago.
Wad it gory? Yes. Was it beyond brutal? Also yes. However it felt that the attempts at shocking the reader with violence far outweighed any attempt at building a storyline worth following. More attention was put into the spice level than the actual plot line and that just isn't my thing.
If you're into brutal gore stories with nonplots, this is for you.
