4.0 out of 5 stars Mistress Of The Dark - very dark, indeed, December 5, 2005

This review is from: Mistress of the Dark (Mass Market Paperback)

MISTRESS OF THE DARK, by Sephera Giron, is a whole different barrel of weasels. Giron keeps us squarely behind the protagonist's point of view. The entire novel is written in diary form, with a narrator that's about as unreliable as a used Lada. This is a long walk through a dark country - "We be in deep psychosis now, bwana!" It feels a little like a testimony, and it's up to the reader to weigh and measure the validity and reality of the narrative. It's a study in character that's about as fun to read as recieving a razor wire enema. Norman Bates has got nothing on Abigail Barnum.

Thoughtful, dark and insightful. Not necessarily a fun read, but an intriguing one. Definitely worth checking out.

Yours in horror,

Steve Vernon

4.0 out of 5 stars Excellent Read!, February 8, 2006

Great book! It's only drawback from getting 5 stars is the ending. When Mavis is giving her feedback on Abigail's diary she asks what happened to Vicki. You'd think that if she read it ALL she'd know!

Besides that, it's an excellent book. I'd recommend it to anyone who likes unusual books with a slight ironic twist.

5.0 out of 5 stars Very good horror book, February 9, 2006

By

This review is from: Mistress of the Dark (Mass Market Paperback)

I am posting this in response to the reviewer who had problems with the grammar in this book. The book was written in diary form, and without giving away key plot lines, the grammar was a reflection of the main character, not the author and proofreader's oversight.

This is not a happy go lucky book, it is a dark look at human nature and relationships. That said, the "errors" are part of the tapestry.

I won't say this book is for everyone, it is very graphic, and disturbing in most parts, but that's what horror is all about, right? :) It made me think about it after finishing it, and that's a good thing for me.
