King Sorrow by Joe Hill
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

This was freaking amazing. I was simply unprepared for what this became.

Decades of story, this epic horror revels in an old myth so modernized and psychological and nastily PRESENT that I'm frankly a bit shocked that it COULD be St. George versus the Dragon.

Because, let's face it, that's what this is.

Of course, it's so much more. 80's satanic panic, occultism, friends getting in WAY too deep, and the fact that a single stupid moment can ruin the rest of their lives. But that opening is just the beginning.

But let's take another look at this novel. I should mention that it is a horror that NEEDS to be read on Easter. Trust me. Easter. It's an Easter horror. A dragon Easter horror.

And don't listen to the trolls.

Muahahahahahaha. Great novel. Truly.
