The layout of this book reminds me of poetry. Line after line, telling a story through quick and decisive storytelling. I've only read one other book written in such a style, though it was nowhere near gore and extreme horror as Eric Kapitan's writing.

If you're looking for horror, this book is for you. If you're looking for an author not afraid to write about sensitive subjects, this writer is for you.

I don't want to go into plot details or such because that's what a summary is for, but for an avid horror lover like myself, these characters were perfect. They were horrible. They were pitied. They were psychotic. They were absolutely perfect. That mixed in with a different type of storytelling and plot line: bound for success.

My only issue is that I wish it were longer. I would have loved to have more words to read, but maybe that's a reader reflection rather than on the author.
