Title: Pandering to the Lowest Common Denominator
Product review: This is the type of novel that gives Horror Fiction a bad name. Laymon's formula can be quite simply stated - create a totally ludicrous premise, then add liberal doses of gratuitous sex and violence. Never mind plot development, characterization, suspension of disbelief, or the art of storytelling for that matter.Laymon is clearly pandering to an audience that finds a ridiculous plot sprinkled with over-the-top violence and sex to be a page turner.This book is an embarrasment to the publisher and the horror genre. Proof that people will buy anything these days.
