This book was really fun, it is obviously a little dated however the horror elements are great, the characters are likable, and the book was very well paced. 

I knocked off a star for the over-sexulisation of women. The women in the story are mostly described and characterised by their physical appearance. 

I also felt the ending conflict was too fast, not enough of the mystery of the pendant was fleshed out, and the main villain was barely in the book. However the un-dead type creatures are very well explored and characterised.
