Nicholas believes that he has been cursed, and he is not alone; his eccentric love interest, Cicely, is convinced that the fate of the world depends on her possession of a tennis ball. As their loved ones express skepticism, Nicholas and Cicely seek out other curse victims, including accident-prone Abby and reluctant mentor Kin. Though at first the curses seem mere delusions, it soon becomes clear that a malevolent entity called Pete is amusing itself by tormenting them.
Reviews with the most likes.
A bizarre little novel filled with lists, supernatural demon things, and a man whose curse is to be slapped once every day. At times the novel seems to be trying way to hard to be weird, but it's also an engaging mix of mystery, horror, comedy. It's the type of that can't have an ending that both makes sense and is completely satisfying, so the last 15 pages or so are a little disappointing, but the ending doesn't negate all the good stuff in the other 94% of the novel.
