Book Review: A Classic Not For The Squeamish
Summary: 5 Stars
Since it's publication some 20 years ago, this book has been a cult classic and almost impossible to find. Because of this, there are probably a lot of horror fans just chomping at the bit to snag a copy of this new edition. Well, I have read the book and, yes, it is a classic. No question about that. But it is also VERY graphic, and VERY disturbing. Once read you will never forget it and with this book that is both good and bad. Good writing should be effective and this one is. That's the good. However, this book will rip your guts out. You will be disgusted and repulsed and the images Ketchum creates with his rock solid prose will linger in your mind and those images are horrific in every sense of the word. I highly recommend this book with a cautionary note that it is not for everyone. Read it at your own risk. And I mean that. A true classic but a disturbing one.
