Editorial Reviews

Review

At long last, Levin's sequel to his best-selling 1967 horror novel! (Library Journal )

Impossible to put down. Ever so subtly Levin has stripped his audience of their rational defenses and holds them in his clutches. (Providence Journal )

Disturbing. Rosemary notes that Andy's eyes occasionally take on the Satanic cast she remembers so vividly from his childhood. Is her son leading humanity toward extinction or rebirth? (The New York Times Book Review ) --This text refers to an alternate Paperback edition.

4.0 out of 5 stars Re read last chapter, October 5, 2010
This review is from: Son of Rosemary (Paperback)
I read this book recently, directly after reading Rosemary's Baby for the first time. I had seen the movie, Rosemary's Baby years ago, saw it in the library and checked it out again. Then I decided to read the book. Staright way then I read this book. Contrary to what many readers have posted in other sites, I did not find this book to be the straight-forward hastily written hack job, I thought it was cleverly written, just as the first one. I think the ending of this book has been mis-interpreted by many readers. If you read the first book, and then this one, you will see a consistent style. It differs from the movie stylistically though. Also, it doesn't top the first one, almost no sequel could do that- so I give it one star less.

2.0 out of 5 stars This Book is a Mess, April 4, 2010
This review is from: Son of Rosemary (Paperback)
I very much enjoy Ira Levin's work. Do not read this book, though, if you expect his usual performance. This book is a mess. It's nowhere near as good as ROSEMARY'S BABY although it tries to be. If you must read it to find out "what happened," as I did, you'll find that what happened is that Ira Levin went a bit nutso. Don't say I didn't warn you.

1.0 out of 5 stars What was he thinking?, July 22, 2011
By 
G. S. Reed (Long Island, NY) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
This review is from: Son of Rosemary (Paperback)
The novel was fairly ridiculous throughout, but the ending was so awful, that were Levin not already deceased when I read the book, I would hunt him down and slap him! I paid 25 cents for this book as a library reject, and I want my money back.
