5.0 out of 5 stars I remember, March 23, 2006
This review is from: Spawn Hb (Hardcover)
I read this book when I was 14 at school - roughly 14 years ago now.
The teacher came down to the bottom of the class where I was hunched over this book - I hadn't noticed the room had gone quiet or that he was looming over me until his hand slapped down on the page.
He took it to the front and flicked through a couple of pages and then with a voice of disgust advised that this was not the sort of thing nice people read.
When I got home with my book that night I promised myself I would finish it now just to spite him.
It was utterly terrifying. Aborted featuses, loss of life.
I only read it the once but have always remembered being afraid and I associate this book with my independance, the first time I exercised my will against teacher bullies!

5.0 out of 5 stars I have had a copy for YEARS!!!, June 27, 2002
This review is from: Spawn (Paperback)
This is one of those books that I assumed was self-published. Realy. While I didn't find any spelling errors I did fine enough logical and continuity errors to fail a freshman Lit student! The book was GREAT however!!!

Read it, know it, be it!

I wasn't aware that, when an abortion is performed in Britain, the fetus is sent to the basement in a basket where a depressed caretaker throws it in the incinerator!!! Well; USED too - now he does different things with those fetuses....
I'll leave Shaun to tell you about what.

Anyway - loved it, didn't much manage to respect it - but LOVED it!!!

5.0 out of 5 stars The most insanely twisted novel ever written..., April 12, 2006
This review is from: Spawn (Paperback)
The most amazing piece of sleazy shock horror I ever read was the novel SPAWN by Shaun Hutson, about a retarded janitor at a hospital... his job was to shovel the aborted fetuses into an oven. But he feels sorry for them, see? So he saves three and buries them under an electrical pylon during a thunderstorm. Just like Frankenstein, lightning bolts bring the bodies back to life as telepathic mutant zombies! They command the retard to bring them victims so they can drink their blood! WTF? Hysterical. Also in the same vein by Hutson were SLUGS (made into a movie!), SLUGS 2: BREEDING GROUND and EREBUS.
