Title: The King of Depravity
Product review: If you're a fan of safe, traditional Horror Fiction like King and Saul - stay far away from Edward Lee. Every time I read a book by him, I continue to be astounded at the new levels of depravity and gore that swim in his head. I consider this a GOOD thing. Sure, this is just Lee's take on the "Haunted House story," but he twists it so far beyond recognition, you have to respect him.Some say he's nothing but a "splatterpunk" writer, but I disagree - his work has a certain visceral esoteria to it. He weaves his own mythology deeply among the abominations written on the page. It's Edward Lee, if anyone I've read in the last decade, who deserves comparison to Clive Barker.
