Title: Couldn't Get Through It
Product review: I really hate to write this but Choir of Ill Children is just plain poor. Reading it was impossible as my mind kept wandering because the narrative was so dull. I know many have written of what an atmospheric novel this is, but sludge, fog, and landfills also have atmosphere. But I don't want to invest too much time with them. I felt that Piccirilli's November Mourns did a much better job of pulling off the Southern Gothic thing. This book just seems to be an exercise in surrealism with no real purpose. Don't let this novel put you off from trying Piccirilli's work. Just choose another title.
