Review title: Exhibit A
Product review: This is the kind of garbage that killed the horror genre in the late 80's. Publishers started putting out really bad books, throwing them at an audience they underestimated, underappreciated, and didn't consider intelligent (apparently.) So, they saturated the market with pure schlock and the public got so fed up that people stopped buying horror (except for the die-hard fans like me.) GHOULS is one of the many sub-par books that left a bad taste in readers mouths and pushed them to other genres. (Pinnacle and Zebra were the absolute worst offenders.)Lee is like a 7th grade kid on the playground when he writes; full of tired yuk-yuk macho sexual innuendos, throwing gore for cheap thrills-- because he doesn't understand how to scare readers-- and generally insulting the genre and it's fans by polluting the market with garbage.
