2.0 out of 5 stars NOT FOR MONSTER FANS LIKE ME, December 10, 2006

By

This review is from: Bonegrinder (Paperback)

This is a difficult one to review because its all build-up to the final reveal and some will like it and others will be thoroughly disappointed. Right away I must warn those looking for a monster book that this isn't the typical monster-on-a-rampage book that one might expect. Most of the action takes place after the few attacks and the story mainly focuses on how the news of a possible monster on the loose affects the town and its sheriff. Me, I'm a monster fan. I want to know what the monster is/looks like and I want it to make many appearances and be the source of much gory mayhem. This is more of a mystery in the vein of an "X-files" episode ("Quagmire" comes to mind). Therefore, the writing was good, but I'm not a fan of the story or the resolution.

5.0 out of 5 stars One of, if not his best work, December 1, 1997

By A Customer

This review is from: Bonegrinder (Hardcover)

I beleive this is one of Lutz's best. I couldn't put the book down. Great suspense and terror that kept me guessing until the very end. This book should have been made into a movie, it has blockbuster potential.

5.0 out of 5 stars One terrific mysterious creature killing people novels, October 21, 2009

By 

A READER (USA) - See all my reviews

This review is from: Bonegrinder (Hardcover)

I love this book and have to recommend it to anyone looking for a terrific read about a monster. People are being killed by a lake. What monstrous creature is responsible? I would warn folks to be careful reading other reviews here about this book as they may contain spoilers. But if you want a great read to distract you on a plane ride this will fill the bill.
