Title: Entertaining and Unusual Post-Apocalyptic Fiction
Product review: I was first attracted to Brian Keene's work after I heard that he had written a short story about a day when it started raining and never stopped. I read that short story, entitled "The Garden Where My Rain Grows" and enjoyed it. The Conqueror Worms revisits that same world, incorporating that short story into it's second act, but adding an engaging story about an old man watching the waters rise around the mountain where he dwells.I found this novel thoroughly engaging and read it in two days. It avoids unnecessary characterization or dialogue. There were no slow or boring parts. I really don't have any criticisms. Granted, it's not super-sophisticated, but that's not what I was after. It felt like a really good and really long episode of the X-files or the Outer Limits. It was like watching a good horror film. His writing is clear, concise, and efficient.I look forward to reading his other work.
