Nice and creepy

I read this book when I was 13 or 14 and loved it. So deliciously creepy. It's been difficult to find good creepy books ever since.

This was a great book!

Wow! Wow! Wow! I've read several of Stuart Woods' novels before, all from the Stone Barrington series. I've enjoyed all of those so much, I wasn't sure I'd like something other than a Stone B. story. What an amazing surprise this was. I haven't been so engrossed in a story in ages. At times, I had to force myself to put this book down. The characters were engaging and the intertwined plots were quite simply mesmerizing. Once you start reading, you'll be hooked straight through to the unexpected ending. Stuart Woods is an expert storyteller.

Truly A Page Turner...

I must say it was a page turner... though the quote of Steven King saying it was scary as hell I don't agree with. It was scary... to a point and well written and you really couldn't put it down. But it wasn't on you can't read late at night. But don't let that put your hopes down! It is really one of the greatest books I've read! Its one of those books where the character doesn't know what has happened til the end. And the best part is that you are put in the characters position! Not one of those books where you know but they don't... You don't know either which really makes it a great book. Read it, like it, review it, read it again! This has really brought to my attention a new author to read.

This is a fabulous page-turner!!!

This is one of the best books I have ever read. The ending willturn you upside down. Books don't normally scare me, but I have neverbeen more nervous to turn the lights out when I read this book.

This Book's Got Everything A Good Book Should Have!

This is the first Stuart Woods book I've read and I'm very pleased!! Under The Lake has it all, suspense, action, adventure, humor, and a little romance!!! This book is entertaining from beginning to end, with a big twist at the end that blew me away!!!!!! This is a book that I would recommend if you are a suspense/mystery/horror fan. You want be disappointed with this one!!!!
