The book thankfully, is not too deep into the forbidden zone! If you wanted to read a book that deals with the unworldly and a low level of references to the over - exhausted metaphor of good vs. evil, then you have a catch.
Tailor made in an attempt to become YASFM - Yet Another SciFi Movie, the book has all the necessary elements, an isolated town, yada and then more yada.
However, the description of events surrounding the characters is rich, and somewhat fresh. Its suspense wears off fast, but the thriller or the action part continues for a while.
The book does take a fall of two steps below commonplace towards the end of the story just before the plot rolls up when the author loses it.
It may be read by hardcore SciFi fans, and the author does try to keep you engaged with a very low key sexual attractor as the weapon.
All in all, the book is not too bad, did keep me wanting to know the finer details even if it was easy to figure out how it would end. Some of the most common, bizzare endings were avoided.
