Book Reviews of Something Wicked This Way Comes

Book Review: A Poetic Journey into Nightmares
Summary: 5 Stars

If you have children who you wish to encourage to read, who have imagination and would enjoy getting scared by a book, then buy this masterpiece. Suitable for adults and children, it is a poetic and beautifully rich in imagery and themes. Essentially the story of a battle between good and evil, rebirth of the old and the hidden powers of belief, it follows the arrival of an evil circus in a mid-western USA town. Gothic horror seen through the eyes of two eleven year old boys, it still haunts me today. This is the book that started the last twenty years of voracious reading, and is the perfect book to give to your children after you've finished it.
