Book Reviews of The Halloween Man
Book Review: Just plain dumb!
Summary: 1 Stars
I can sum up this book in just a few words: Don't waste your money or your time. It is just plain dumb!Book Review: Moving Love Story and Horror all in ONE
Summary: 5 Stars
This is now the third book I've read by Doug and it is absolutely amazing. Once I ordered it from amazon.com, I began reading it once out of the package and from that monent I could literally not put it down. If the love story doesn't move you, the horror certainly will. Great book and I'd recomend it to ANYONE. Keep 'em coming, Doug.Book Review: My favorite horror novel of the year
Summary: 5 Stars
The Halloween Man by Douglas Clegg is one of the most complex and riveting novels of horror I've ever read. From its opening as a man kidnaps a boy and take the kid to a small New England town -- to the back-story of the man's childhood in the town of Stonehaven, with all its dark secrets -- The Halloween Man had me enthralled.Both a powerful story of the redemptive spirit of love as well as a truly nightmarish excursion to the heart of darkness, The Halloween Man ranks as one of the best horror novels of the '90s.
Other favorites: The House by Bentley Little, Bag of Bones by Stephen King, Tooth Fairy by Graham Joyce, Sineater by Elizabeth Massie
I can't wait for the new Clegg book, Nightmare Chronicles.
Book Review: Not Just a book for Halloween
Summary: 5 Stars
Douglas Clegg is a fantastic writer. I really sank into this book and could not put it down it was so involving. I'm going to go find his other books. This is like discovering Stephen King for the first time.I wish this book were longer. I could read it again, it had that much going for it. I am going to get copies for all my friends for Christmas.
Book Review: Not the Clegg I like
Summary: 2 Stars
Clegg is a very good writer, "The Hour Before Dark" and "Afterlife" are both clear proof of that, but this book is not on the same level. I was a little bored by it, it's nothing new, you get lost not because it's a very complicated plot but because it's boring, short and a little predictable. Get other books by him, but skip this one.
