This was the first Laymon book that I had ever read and I am hooked. I loved it. A little fantasy mixed with horror and it worked out great. The storyline was easy to follow and I was unable to put the book down once I finished. There is a lot of graphic sex in this book so if that offends you don't read it, but otherwise I highly recommend it to all horror fans.

I enjoyed the book, however, I loved his Beast House books better, I didn't think this book was scary at all, to me it was more of an action, adventure, with a little sci fi in it!

A great book! Scary and exciting, I for one did not think it was predictable at all! This book was kind of like a thrill ride...it keeps you on the edge of your seat. Cliche, I know, but its true. Laymon is good and this is one of his better books.

The beginning was a shocker & really drew me in. Better than the usual Laymon book although there were some parts that dragged on & on. Also felt that the responses of the female characters were a little unrealistic & fit into a pattern of a man's fantasy such as never getting jealous & somehow always finding reasons for running around topless or without their underwear (like most of the female characters in Laymon's books) - but if you can get past that, this was a pretty good read.

Great read! Weird and interesting. Wonder what it would be like to take a body ride, yes, really gets you to thinking....ride around in someone else's body and see things through their eyes?
Definitely makes you wonder.
