This book was incredible!
I'm a massive fan of authors that aren't afraid to push limits, shock the reader and create fictional situations that would cause a lot of people to feel uncomfortable.
The story creates a very engaging linear plot with parents and their children ensnared into this diabolical playground with meat grinders, buzz saws, flamethrowers and a see saw!
This story made me feel tense at so many points in such a great way, because I felt very invested in the characters and thier fates.
Sitting around 380 pages this book quickly introduces you to a vast array of characters in such a vivid and detailed way and has so many twists and turns in the surly itself.
I truly loved this story and now need to read everything ever written by this amazing author!
If your a fan of splatter punk, extreme gore, violence involving children and twisted old ladies, then go and check out this book, you won't regret it.
