Hello to everyone that I hope will join me in a discussion about this book.

This is a first time for me to read anything from this author. And to have the story to start out like this. I'm use to reading horror stories that has some supernatural beings, like a werewolf, ghosts or anyother things that go bump in the night.

It's nice to read something that different, not so easy for me to work out the story line. Good to know that that there more scarer things out there then just supernatural beings. To unable to walk or to use your left hand. To have your life to change so quickly. What scareing thoughs they are to have running your head, day and night. To be some young, with no family members. I wonder where this story will take me next!

Hiw writing is a litle heavy for me. He does have me quite intriqued though as to what his story is. I always look forward to reading the next's day read. I too have not read him before. I do read a lot of horror but somehow have missed this author.
I did do a little research on him and it is little but I guess his books are quoted as being "a bump in the night" type story. For those who have read him, he seems to be very well liked.
