Title: Huge Let-down
Review: I've heard so much about Ketchum over the years, and even met him at a l999 Horror Convention. His classic book OFF SEASON is hard to get, and I've been dying to read (and find)it for under the crazy prices that are charged for it. Leisure has finally put this much acclaimed author's work (THE LOST) on their roster, so I snatched it up the day it was released. Let's see: The prologue was intense, and then there was close to 300 pages of NOTHING. Yes. I said NOTHING but character development and graphic details of oral sex. For the amazing blurb written all over this book's cover (by the likes of Stephen King and Fangoria magazine), I expected much more. Hopefully this was just one of Ketchum's slow moments, because I know that he is highly respected in the genre. I wish Leisure would re-release OFF SEASON and THE GIRL NEXT DOOR so us poor people can see what all the fuss is about.....because THE LOST certainly is nothing to brag about.
Is the review positive or negative?
