5.0 out of 5 stars The Godsend is pure horror
How can this great book be out of print! It came out in 1978, riding the exorcist/rosemary's baby/omen horror craze of that era. The story is about a family who adopt a beautiful little girl...But then strange things start happening and people start dying. Told in an arresting first person style, the horror gradually mounts as the father begins to believe the worst. This...

2.0 out of 5 stars Unimpressed.
I read a ton of reviews saying how great this book is...I have to say I do not agree. This book dragged along page after page. It had its moments of intensity, but it lasted only a few pages and poof, back to same old boring read.

5.0 out of 5 stars The Godsend is pure horror, February 10, 2001
This review is from: The Godsend (Hardcover)
How can this great book be out of print! It came out in 1978, riding the exorcist/rosemary's baby/omen horror craze of that era. The story is about a family who adopt a beautiful little girl...But then strange things start happening and people start dying. Told in an arresting first person style, the horror gradually mounts as the father begins to believe the worst. This tragic story is moving, exciting, and sure to freak you out. You'll love it if you enjoy 70s horror.

5.0 out of 5 stars The Godsend!, August 16, 1999
By A Customer
This review is from: The Godsend (Hardcover)
This is the only book I have ever read that made me cry. It was not scary so much as it is was grief stricken. It touched my deepest darkest emotions. In my opinion this was the greatest Horror/Sorrow novel ever published. Words are not enough, you'll have to read it for your selves. Trust me, you've never read anything like this!
