Book Review: A Fascinating Look Into Madness
Summary: 5 Stars
Possibly one of the best horror novels ever written, The Fog is the story of a government-made fog-like substance that escapes from underground storage following an earthquake. Originally intended for warfare, it causes insanity in those it touches and leaves death and destruction in its wake. It is up to the desperate government scientists of Britain and a man first exposed to the fog to stop it before it destroys the world. As well as having an engaging story about a team working around the clock to stop the insidious fog, the novel is peppered with grisly vignettes describing in detail the effects on the people who come in contact with it; for example a town full of people rush to the ocean in a mass suicide, a private school for boys turns into an orgy of mutilation and murder, and pigeons attack their owner viciously. Providing suspense, fright and all-out goriness, The Fog is a must-read for any self-respecting horror fan.
