I'm so glad I participated because this book was just plain FUN!This was a unique tale that successfully blended demonic possession with courtroom drama. I know it sounds like a crazy mix, and it is, but believe me ...
Hmm... okay. So, I'm trying to gather my thoughts so that I can adequately, coherently, and fairly review this book. A little background on how the book came to me first. My sweety pie, Jeremiah, borrowed this book to me. I didn't ask for a book to borrow, but one evening he had two books sitting...
On the front cover of the book Stephen King is quoted to have said that nobody writes horror better than John Farris. A blurb like this gives the reader high expectations, so I was a little disappointed to discover that the book isn’t even horror. If I had a point system for rating books, points ...

The third in what I've discovered is a quatrology (just ordered the final one, "Avenging Fury," from Used B&N, as no used bookstores in town had it; same with "Heavy Planet," although I digress...).

"Kidnappers are frequently complex devious people," the detective had warned her. But that wasn't the half of it. What began as a routine kidnapping would end in much more--sins of unspeakable evil and terrifying violence. Who are these strangely sinister captors and who is their wickedly erotic ...

They're all dead and I don't want to remember Oh, but you must. It's inevitable. So is the work we'll finish, together. Before the night ends. "Help me help somebody!!! I can't take any more " I don't want to die! You know that I can get you ...
Or else they owned their choice of aircraft ranging from minijets to ultralight helicopters. The skies could be hazardous over thickly populated provinces. Except for the rich enclaves like the Privilege or Paradiso Palms out in the desert or Laguna Nigel on the Pacific, the tax base of the rest ...
