4.0

I thought this was an interesting story, and that Frazer Lee has crafted something that seems deceptively simple at first, but grows more complex as you read on. This book will definitely appeal to fans of 80s horror, as it has some elements of a throwback to some of the plot elements. Samhain continues to release good horror novels, and "Lamplighters" is no exception. It also has a unique concept, and does seem like it could be made into an interesting film, as well.

Loved the beginning and the middle and most of the ending and then just read it all out and thought that it was a bit squandered. The book could have been just as good without the fantasy/alchemy episodes in the end. It all read like something from a film, which is a good thing, but I never got the resolve I wanted. Guess I am picky today.

Still a good horror that kept me curled up in bad a day and a night reading.
