burgerchamp 's review for:
The Troop
by Nick Cutter
Was hoping for Lord of the Flies meets Who Goes There? (The story The Thing is based on). Not at all. I will say, the language is masterful and the dialogue is great, but...
This book is filled with seemingly unnecessary flashbacks and flash forwards. I was expecting more twists and turns. Nope. There’s so little build up or normalcy, it seems blasé when it gets crazy. There’s none of the paranoid, “Who’s infected?” vibe I wanted. It wasn’t bad enough to abandon, but not good enough to be exciting to come back to.
