Kill Creek

4.5 stars!!

Damn this book is good!! And it's a debut too?! That just makes is even more impressive.

This follows 4 horror authors who get invited to a supposedly haunted house on Halloween for an interview - what can possibly to wrong?!

So this book is just brilliantly written - fact. From page one there's atmosphere and tension but there is also a lot of fun to be had in reading this. It's creepy in the right places, shocking in others, it's just well executed. The descriptions are vivid, the characters are varied and wonderful and the structure of the book is so interesting and well planned.

I loved the 4 author characters - I loved how they all ‘wrote' and represented a different sub-genre of horror. It was so intriguing to get to know each of them and their back story, and also how they deal with the events of Kill Creek.

I can't really put my finger on why this wasn't a full 5 stars for me, there were times when I was reading during the middle parts when I wasn't completely engrossed by the story, it just felt like a slight disconnect at times but this didn't distract too much when I progressed to the ending, which had me gritting my teeth at what happened!

I will certainly be looking out for future work from this author and also from Inkshares which sounds like a fantastic publisher.
