Another book review. Allhallows eve By Richard laymon, another that was lent to me and i enjoyed muchly.
Blurb/Synopsis:Nothing unusual ever happens in Ashburg, until a local family are mutilated and left to die in their own home. Since then, the house has stood empty, but when mysterious invitations arrive announcing a party there, nobody thinks its a joke. After all, it is Allhallow's Eve
Another fantastic book by Richard Laymon, i'm really starting to like this author and will be reading more of his books. there are many different characters within this book that are all connected one way or another, through family or friends. This book was written in 1985 and although it is a old book it is still up to date. Haunting book as based around a house that had a horrific murder within and now the very same house is hosting a Halloween party but by whom? I would like to add I think It may be the way Richard Laymon writes but the main character is a child created from rape, why this is added I don't know as without this little added part to the main character this book it still a brilliant read. The ending is a bit blunt, but it doesn't leave you at a cliff hanger at least like the last Richard Laymon book I read called Island. I would recommend this book to everyone to give it a try as Richard Laymon was a fantastic writer. 4 out of 5 for this book.
