My rating: 4 of 5 stars
I suppose I'm spoiled for truly wicked horror after reading so much Hunter Shea over the last few years, so when I grabbed this on Netgalley, loving the sound of it from the blurb, I thought I was going to be really terrified.
I mean, let's face it... the premise is sick as hell.
The text lives up to the promise, too, but expect it to be more in line with a B-Movie horrorshow that doesn't spare the kids. At all.
Think about the original Halloween meets Kindergartener Survival. Or, rather, first grade. :)
Is it sick? Quite. Does it scratch all those sensational penny dreadful urges in me? Quite.
A very nice change of pace. Mind you, only the sickest readers need to hunt for this little gem. :) This is not for you old farts who sip lemonade on the porch. This is a battle royale with ultimate stakes among six-year-olds. Gird your loins.
