Dwelling by Thomas S. Flowers

4.0

DWELLING is the first novel in Flowers' SUBDUE trilogy - and if I say too much, you might have to kill me. I'd hate to spoil something, so the best I can explain is that it's like the first novel in THE LORD OF THE RINGS. We are introduced to a group of well-developed characters and their shared backstory, much of it involving the effects of war on people now returned home. As the book goes on we see them experience strange things that would all seem to be building to something super-creepy. There's loads of super-creepy things happening and startling moments. I'm a big fan of Stephen King, and it reminded me a bit of IT - a group of childhood friends back together as adults to deal with possibly otherworldly beings. Like IT, DWELLING is a scary book, for real. I look forward to reading the rest of the series to see the conclusion!
