- Any additional comments?
- I’m a huge MbC fan. I particularly love his supsense/supernatural/action stuff. I’m not as big a fan of classic gorey-horror, which this leans more towards.
What I loved about this book:
The symbolism. Like all horror, this is a morality tale. I loved the literary symbolism in the various train cars and their occupants’ deaths.
The twists. Of course, you know that what you see is not what you get in a book like this, but even though I was second-guessing everything, there were lots of surprises.What I didn’t love as much:
The gore. It was pretty hard for me to keep listening through that. A lot of others would enjoy it, though, and it’s a valid artistic decision for the genre and morality lesson of the book.Overall, I’d recommend it to fans of classic horror. This is definitely not horror-lite, so be prepared if you decide to dive in.
