5.0 out of 5 stars Wow!
John Coyne penned a thriller in this one, it's so pleasantly horrid that it just makes you shiver. When the child comes from New York underground you feel sick thinking what might happen if this were your town, don't read this one at night.

I first read Coyne in the mid-80's. He knocked me out with Hobgoblin, which to this day is one of my all-time favorites. I've read Hobgoblin three times. I purchased Child of Shadows a few years back and finally got around to reading it a couple of weeks ago. Boy, was I disappointed. The story line is interesting, but the book dies out before it gets to the end. I had to force myself to finish it. Somewhere in the middle, I started and finished three other books before I finished Child of Shadows. If you want to read Coyne at his best, read Hobgoblin.
