Customer Reviews

He did it again.

Intense, semi-historical, and definately breathtaking, that's definately how you would discribe this book. I felt sorry for Dusty, but he did a very heroic act in the end. You definately have to read this.

GREAT!!!!

I thought that this one of Pike's best! He is such a wonderful author and i hope he keeps writing for a long time.i felt bad for Dusty in a way.If you have ever read any of Pike's book and looking for another one of his books to read you should pick this one it was GREAT!!!

MY FAVORITE PIKE BOOK!!!

This book was great! Also just like in Chain Letter you never hate the villian but feal there pain and want to help. I think every character in this book was crafted carefully because they were all so great. I would recomend this book to any one.

Great Book! One of the Best

A great book once again by the one and only Christopher Pike. He sends out a history story with horror for an edge-of-the-seat-pageturner. Everyone should read this book and all of the other ones becuase they are also gripping stories of horror.

I loved this book! It deserves more than a 5 star rating!

This book kept me going all the time! Just when I thought it was all going to be solved... here comes more! Christopher works wonders on his books! Just the kind of man who knows how to do it!
