This review is from: Naomi (Mass Market Paperback)

This novel rambled on aimlessly and the writing was poor in spots. I had recently read his NIGHTMARE CHRONICLES, which I thought was very good, and I expected much more from this author. I only got about 90 pages into it before I gave up.

This review is from: Naomi (Mass Market Paperback)

This is the first Clegg book I have read and enjoyed it very much. He does an excellent job of weaving plot lines and keeping you reading until they all intersect. He has some very beautiful and elegantly black descriptions of the underground of New York City and the Serpent that is loose there. The only real problem I had was too much unuseful prose when the character Romeo was at the forefront and a rushed, vague ending. This was a very good story, but deserved better to wrap it all up.

1.0�toiles sur 5 A dull tale of a haunting., D�c 2 2001

Par	Chadwick H. Saxelid "Bookworm" (Concord, CA United States) - Voir tous mes commentaires (REAL NAME)

This review is from: Naomi (Mass Market Paperback)

Naomi dies under the rails of a New York subway train. Or does she? Jake, Naomi's childhood friend and, apparently, her one, true love, goes to look for her. Something is dug up in yard of an old building being restored. What does this have to do with Naomi's death? Frankly I did not care enough to find out.

Evidently Douglas Clegg's novel was an e-serial, which explains the fragmented and inconsistent narrative flow of the novel and how it seems more tease than actual terror. It's a literate piece of writing, just not scary enough for me.

I got turned on to Douglas Clegg by my favorite author Bentley Little, who mentioned in an interview that Clegg is one of HIS favorite authors. I can see why. Read more

The ending of this book was bit confusing with the dreamlike state the characters are in, it seemed rushed. A good read up until then. Read more

5.0�toiles sur 5 Read it in one day!
Not too often I get so caught up in a novel that I read it in one day, but I did this one.

It started a bit slow -- too much fancy writing and not enough story. Read more

"PURITY" was an excellent appetizer for one who's never read a Douglas Clegg novel.
