Product Description

Product Description

Released from a mental hospital where he has spent all his adult life, Harold Pierce is given a job as a hospital porter. But that job involves the disposal of aborted foetuses, something which brings back nightmare memories of Harold's accidental killing of his baby brother years before. A time of trauma and terror has begun, terror heightened by the escape from prison of convicted killer Paul Harvey who, hunted by the police, embarks on a muderous rampage. Pierce and Harvey, both disturbed, are about to unleash a terror beyond belief. --This text refers to an alternate Paperback edition.

5.0 out of 5 stars I have had a copy for YEARS!!!, Jun 27 2002
This review is from: Spawn (Paperback)
This is one of those books that I assumed was self-published. Realy. While I didn't find any spelling errors I did fine enough logical and continuity errors to fail a freshman Lit student! The book was GREAT however!!!

Read it, know it, be it!

I wasn't aware that, when an abortion is performed in Britain, the fetus is sent to the basement in a basket where a depressed caretaker throws it in the incinerator!!! Well; USED too - now he does different things with those fetuses....
I'll leave Shaun to tell you about what.

Anyway - loved it, didn't much manage to respect it - but LOVED it!!!

4.0 out of 5 stars BEST OF HUTSON'S EARLY BOOKS, Jun 1 2001
By BD Ashley "vidiot_y2k" (Otago, New Zealand) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
This review is from: Spawn (Paperback)
Shaun Hutson hasn't written a horror novel for quite some time, maybe fatherhood's mellowed him a bit, but this rates as the best of his early books. It reads like a b-grade pulp horror, but as usual Hutson has done his homework and doesn't spare his readers the grisly details,with issues ranging from torture and mutilation to infanticide one would expect his work to be garbage,. Fortunately he is a very good writer with a good sense of pacing. If you haven't read Shaun Hutson before this is a good place to start.

5.0 out of 5 stars Absolutely brilliant!, Nov 17 1999
By A Customer
This review is from: Spawn (Paperback)
I thought that this book was really excellent, it really held my attention and i just couldn't put it down. The twist at the end is brilliant and although the whole story is a bit morbid, I thought it was really good. One of the best books ive ever read.
