Title: Complete garbage
Review: I've had it with the late R. Laymon. I've read four or five of his novels and only one was intriging. Dark Mountain is likely the worst of them I've read. The characters suck, the setting is decent but could have been described better to draw the reader in, the overflowing amount of sex is distasteful (as is most of Laymon's work). I just find Laymon in a 2nd or 3rd tier class of horror writers. He probably fits in the Edward Lee and Jack Ketchum class where the cream of the crop includes King, Simon Clark, Nate Kenyon, and perhaps Peter Straub. Don't waste your time on this or any of Laymon's books.
Is the review positive or negative?
