A review by suspensethrill
The Chrysalis by Brendan Deneen
2.0
A couple of things:
1) I found this to be categorized improperly. I went in expecting the horror it is billed as, only to find out it's really a science fiction novel. Nothing wrong with that, just disappointing when you're picking up a book you hope is scary but turns out isn't frightening at all. I'm not a regular reader of horror novels, but even I was disappointed, which isn't the author's fault.
2) I think this would make a swell movie. The story has a very vivid writing style and I think if this was billed properly, could make loads of money.
*I received a copy for review from the publisher via NetGalley.
