From Publishers Weekly

In a novel filled with the atmosphere of movies like Seven or the clearly implied X-Files, Slade (Evil Eye) returns with his Special X Team of Royal Canadian Mounted Police to put down a Native American uprising and solve a series of grisly murders near the Indian encampment. Detective Robert DeClercq is in charge and soon shrunken heads are arriving addressed to him, reminiscent of the Headhunter case. Though Slade boasts a cornucopia of possibly interesting characters (and not a few duds), it is difficult to follow any particular thread because of the large playing field. The plot, while gruesome and detailed?especially from the killer's p.o.v.?proves tedious as Slade stops to consider Vancouver history and Mountie procedure.

Ingram

Decades ago, Inspector Robert DeClercq suffered a tragedy when his young daughter was kidnapped and killed after he was unable to save her. Only now, with a young girl named Katt in his life, can he put his demons to rest. Until DeClercq's Special X Team receives a shrunken head, heralding the return of the Headhunter--a psychopath who left a trail of headless bodies in his wake 11 years earlier--or is it a copycat? While the team seeks the answer, Katt is kidnapped, luring DeClercq away from his comrades in a deadly web of revenge!.

3.0étoiles sur 5 Very strange and gruesome..., Janv. 10 2004
Par Thomas Duff "Duffbert" (Portland, OR United States) - Voir tous mes commentaires
(TOP 1000 REVIEWER)    (REAL NAME)   
Being cooped up in the house during the weather led to a bit more reading time. That, and a two hour commute on light rail. Anyway, I just finished Primal Scream by Michael Slade. A strange and gruesome book that doesn't rank among my favorites. To start with, I think that much of the character development takes place in his earlier book Headhunter (which I haven't read). As a result, there were continual references to people and events that I didn't know anything about but that were important to this story. Next, there are two crime stories going on here that may or may not be interrelated, and it was confusing to figure out what was going on, and why. Third, there are vivid depictions of rape and sexual fetish stuff that is key to the story. Not for the squeamish. The storyline is that there are killings (beheadings, actually) that are going on, and they are similar to a crime spree from the first book. DeClerq is trying to solve the crime and figure out if they perhaps killed the wrong person on the earlier case. Some suspenseful moments to be sure, but very disturbing and somewhat confusing to follow...

3.0étoiles sur 5 Not for the weak of heart, Janv. 20 2003
Par Un client
This series of books is not for the squeamish or the faint of heart. I found that after reading a few they became a bit repetative.

1.0étoiles sur 5 Truly Disappointed, Janv. 12 2002
The authors propensity for villains with schizophrenia or MPD
and carrying multiple story lines in a single book is just getting old.
The story jumps around so much that it becomes quite hard to follow.
The plot is murky and although I don't mind foreshadowing I don't like
to be beaten to death with it (telling us someone's going to die once is
thrilling, more than that and it loses its impact and almost becomes
insulting "ok, I GET it they're going to die, get on with the story."). I
came across Ghoul a few years ago in a used book shop and was
enthralled now I'm just disappointed and doubt I'll read or buy further
books from this author and that saddens me.
