Customer Reviews

Excellent novel

To say that this is a horror novel would be inaccurate because it is in many ways a mystery novel. More precisely put, this novel is a combination of both mystery and horror, mixed with a little mysticism, romance, and some social commentary. Nevetheless, just because the novel doesn't fit exactly into any of the established genre doesn't make it bad. In fact, this is a an excellent story that will keep you away from doing anything else but finishing this story. It certainly did for me. The novel does go into certain length to introduce the characters and set up the background, which tend to leave the reader hanging. But once the story pick up, you'll love it. Just have the patience to read the first several chapters, and everything will fall into place afterward.

John Saul mezmorizes readers everywhere!

I absolutly loved this book. I had never even heard of Jhon Saul before, and there I was, at my schools book fair, buying this book. I read it and at once became mezmerized. I could not put the book down. My teachers yelled at me during my classes becasue I was reading Sleepwalk under the table. I read it during lunch instead of hanging out with my friends, I hardly got my homework done, I was so intent on finishing the book and finding out who done it. I stayed up late into the night reading, and read while eating breakfast... all the time. When I finally finsihed it I saw my grades had dropped tremenously, but I fixed all that. This book is A must read! Martie

John Saul rocks

This is the second John Saul book I read the first was the Right Hand of Evil. This book was very interesting and not at all what I was expecting when I read the title of this book. Very good read I highly recommend it.

A very suspenceful and well writen book

This book was the best I have ever read. It is about a person who hates teenagers. He hates them so much he wants to kill them. All of them. Just when you think you know whats going to happen everthing changes. Jon Saul is the best horror/suspense writer yet I think. He really keeps you turing pages

One of the most suspenseful books ever!

Borrego, New Mexico is a peaceful little desert town. There's just one thing, someone hates teenagers. These trouble makers have to be controlled. Silenced. Forever. He has discovered a way to get back at them. In the night, in their waking hours, whenever. He is a madman with terrifying powers. Soon....he'll draw the children of Borrego beyond the brink of night......
