All Hallow's Dead by Bryan Smith
4.0
I'd Watch This Movie
Another winner from Mr. Smith. He artfully creates a slasher novel with the requisite theme (31 kills by Halloween). The story crackles along and we have the usual kills and Gore, but what really made this book special was the feeling of tragedy and sadness throughout. Our killer has a tragic reason for killing and you just can't help feeling sorry for him. In theory, it should be a bit cliche, but Smith is talented enough to avoid this. The final twenty or so pages evoked a sadness that was surprisingly effective. HIGHLY recommended. Keep em coming, Bryan Smith!
