This was AWESOME, everything someone would want from a slasher novella. I think it's better than the first one and proof that Brian McAuley is one of my favourite authors writing genre fiction today.

The kills were absolutely brutal but it was balanced with some genuine emotion that made the whole thing work.

Between this and American Rapture ex-church kids be feasting this year.
