5.0 out of 5 stars Mr. Zanzibar-The Pied Piper Of Hamland Maybe?, April 25, 2005

This review is from: The Piper (Hardcover)

In this book the reader is introduced to the new guy in the town of Hamland , Mr. Zanzibar. Zanzibar is a magician but he , like his magic is not what he appears to be.Children are going missing and he becomes the Prime Suspect in their disappearances. There is also another character worth mentioning in the book namely a woman named Ellis Diamond who the author makes very believable and real. I have noticed that this is something most Horror writers are unable to accomplish for some obscure reason unknown to me. There are many twist and turns in the plot which are deftly handled by the author.

1.0 out of 5 stars Just AWFUL!, November 2, 2011

This review is from: The Piper (Hardcover)

Seriously, this book is a complete waste of time. While the title references the Pied Piper mythology, the book itself is a third rate thriller that tries to appear to be a supernatural horror story, but isn't. The book falls flat, the ending is unsatisfactory and resolves virtually nothing. This isn't even worth picking up off the street.
