I adore this book! It's a marvellous contemporary horror story which bustles with lively, horrific characters doing terrible, fascinating things yet still manages to have the horror of lonelier books in the genre and several of the scenes were incredibly chilling.
The curiosity, anger and fear of the heroine makes her feels incredibly real – she's not just a passive character through whom the story is observed. The plotting and pace draw the reader on and on and on, it's an incredibly addictive read! I managed to read it and the Thirteenth in a very short time. The character interactions are also quite hilarious.
The dichotomy between the modernness of the town and normal life outside and that which goes on at the Crows, which involves old magic and bloodlines rife with inbreeding and family feuds, is incredibly done.
All in all, if you like characters with character, horrific occurrences and excellent writing, I cannot suggest this book (and its companions) enough!
