4.0 out of 5 stars
Starts with a punch in the guts and never lets down.....,
This review is from: Trapped (Paperback)
When the action started in this book I thought I would be in for a mindless horror trip where people get tortured only for the thrill of making your squirm while reading. Well, I was wrong. Kilborn managed to build an interesting storyline with a few nice twists. Nice characters with just enough depth to them to make them enjoyable. It's not for the squeamish though, there's more than enough graphical horror to knot your insides. I recommend it for thrill seeking readers.

Konrath (Kilborn) has made me a fan of horror again!,
By Southern Kindle - Published on Amazon.com
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
Just finished Trapped and Konrath's other new release Endurance (A Novel of Terror) and both will keep me awake at night, listening for things that go bump in the night!Living in an RV in the backwoods adds an additional element of fear while reading Trapped. I can easily imagine disappearing in the swamp out back, living out the terror of the characters in this book. There were several surprises in the book (who are the bad guys?) and being originally from Michigan myself, it added something to my late-night page-turning. The faint-of-heart and those that don't enjoy pure gore and terror should avoid this book and find something tamer. But fans of Konrath's brand of horror will not be disappointed and will stay up late enjoying the chills running down your back. Caution! If your plans for the summer include camping on a deserted island, you might want to rethink! :) 99 of 114 people found the following review helpful

Read the Uncut Version - Konrath/Kilborn's ALL TIME BEST WORK,
By William B. Crouch - Published on Amazon.com
I've taken occasional flak for recommending Joe's work in light of the fact that Joe and I are friends and sometimes writing partners. As if that might discredit my opinion. If anything, I think this means I know his work better than anyone.I've read everything Joe has written, and the uncut version of TRAPPED is, in my opinion, not only Joe's best work period, but one of the great horror novels ever written. And I mean REAL horror. Like Ketchum, Laymon, King, at their darkest, most terrifying. I'm not saying that Joe won't ever top this book, I just don't see how. When all is said and done, years and years from now and Kindles are thought of with a smirk like Michael Douglas's brick-sized cell phone in Wall Street, TRAPPED will be considered Konrath/Kilborn's magnum opus. Please read the Uncut Version. I read it in a single sitting one night, never went to bed, and could not believe what I was reading. This is a special one. 21 of 23 people found the following review helpful

Not quite as good or scary as ENDURANCE.,
By Kayla R. - Published on Amazon.com
I may be alone in this assessment, but ENDURANCE was a far scarier and much more engrossing.I just couldn't get into TRAPPED as much as I did with ENDURANCE. The Characters were not as engaging, the plot was not quite as intense, and I just didn't think it was as much of a page-turner. Not that it didn't have its scary moments. There was plenty of that. But, it wasn't as much of a trill ride as his other book was, for me. That's just my opinion, though. I'd still read other stuff by this author. ~KR~ |
