I admit I am a bit biased because I know Tom personally but this is a tight, clever story that plays on childhood fears in a very effective way. It has its creepy, scary moments but also its sweet, heartwarming ones.

Scalzi at his best. Maybe this is scalzis best. A fun read with a human heart buried in the over-the-top action.

A strangely relatable tale about our present moment but written 30 years ago. Great characters. Solid story. Very bleak and dark bit with hints of hope.

A guilty pleasure. But a pleasure nonetheless. A bit dated but a fun read.
