Book Reviews of Off Season
Book Review: Great!.
Summary: 4 Stars
This was my first Jack Ketchum. Picked it up for two reasons. 1. I'd heard Ketchum had a similar writing style to Richard Laymon who is my all time favourite auther and 2. Who can resist an uncut, previously banned book about a family of inbred cannibals??.
I almost gave up on this book at first as it was very slow to get started (about halfway through before the actions starts and even longer before it really gets going) but it's deffinatly worth the wait. The last 100 pages or so is brilliant and you really care about whether the characters who are left die or not because they are well developed during the first half of the book.
The plot is basically a group of friends stay in a house together in the woods and are attacked by an inbred cannibalistic family living in a cave nearby.
Once it get's going, fast-paced and exciting and very gorey. Scary and places and has nasty death scenes. The only Ketchum book I've read (so far) so I dont know if it's one of his better books or one of his worse books, but I'd certainly recomend it to horror fans.
