If you will indulge me a minute, while I ramble. I am a reader. I am never without something
to read. I over the years have found books by accident or suggestions or
through recent years blog reviews. So if
you will a little 6 degrees of Michael West.
My husband years ago said that I should read Stephen Zimmer’s Crown of Vengeance,
My husband knows me well and I loved it. As I got to know Stephen he suggested
I read Cinema of Shadows by Michael West, I trust Stephen so I did and I was
hooked. I love horror. I love vamps, lycans, slasher movies, I love it all but it had been awhile since I had read a sleep with the light on horror story with
a story and characters that I like. So I wanted to take moment to publicly
thank Mr. Zimmer for that and with that said I will be honest and say that
Michael West is of one of my favorite all time writers. His writing is smart, is stories are intense
and captivating. He is one of the rare ones that I can honestly say I have
loved everything he has written. But I
will stop going fangirl all over the place and get to it. I begged to be on
Michael West’s blog tour and I am so excited to be on it. His new book is Spook House.
My Thoughts:
Well I guess by know you can tell I loved it. West can make scary monsters and people to care about that are also scared of scary monster leading you to care about the people put in wonderfully scary spots. I started reading this book and I literally could not put it down. So just to sum it up this book is awesome, fun, scary, clever. This is a book that will not disappoint.
My Rating: 5 out of 5.
Synopsis of Spook House:
There are some
places in this world that go far beyond any normal definition of “haunted.”
These places are so evil, so diabolical, that they become gateways to Hell
itself. The Fuller Farm is one such place.
It is said that
old man Fuller conducted unspeakable acts, blood rituals and human sacrifices,
all in an attempt to gain the ultimate knowledge, the ultimate power. And then,
he was killed–horribly murdered on his own lands, leaving the house to stand as
a vacant monument to his wickedness. But once a door is opened, it can never
really be closed.
Now, the stars
are right. The gateway is ready to once more unleash unspeakable horror upon
the town of Harmony, Indiana. And this will be one Halloween that they will
never forget!
