The best thing about this book is the cover on my copy, which is not pictured on Goodreads, sadly. It is, interestingly, a very faithful rendering of the cannibal creatures as depicted in the book, rather than a generic drawing of your everyday cannibal (or a random dog mouth as on the pictured cover??). It is the sort of freaky cover that draws strange looks when reading in public. The old lady next to me on the plane looked at this cover, looked at my iPod (coincidentally playing a song called 'Serial Killer' at the time) and BAM I had my own armrest. So reading this book makes you look like you packed a chainsaw in your carry-on but there are benefits.

Other than the great cover this is your standard crazy mutant underground cannibal gollums beset attractive holiday-goers thing. You know the deal. A lot of people die and the kids aren't even safe. The ones who survive though are totally not the ones that would have made it in a film. There is multiple dog death though which always makes me sad :C so mean.
