A review by sighentist
Haven by Tom Deady

3.0

It's a nice and easy read, but not without flaws, especially for a winner of Bram Stoker Award for First Novel - I probably set my expectations a little too high. Some of the plot twists and explanations weren't quite convincing and I thought characters could use some more in-depth exploration, but hey, it's not supposed to be a psychological horror. It was interesting to read, even if the emphasis is on action, mystery and plot, and the language is not as important - it's definitely not literary fiction, but pulp, and as such, it works quite well, but in the end I'm not the target audience of this novel.
