Constant Readers rejoice, we are in the presence of another book. Master of character building, King also brandishes his talent of eroding selective characters to the point of vivid warped perceptions. Written with controlled chaos and a focused narrative, King unveils certain evils in this collection of novellas that enjoy and thrive on eating the pain of others. A definite highlight was the return of Holly, who questions an ideology that might include – killing for God is the norm – only to discover it’s much worse than she anticipated. If there’s one thing to be taken away from these works of fiction, it is…if ghosts exist, one can bet not all of them are holy.
