The Blackstone Chronicles : The Serial Thriller Complete in One Volume

Rating:
Summary: Great Thriller, Nicely Done!
Review: This book was excellent! It ranges from being a supernatural horror story to a psycholocial thriller. It speaks of ghosts not only in the normal sense, but also those ghosts which we all carry within our minds and dark family closets. The ending was a tad bit weak, but overall this is an excellent book well worth the read.

Summary: Entertaining....But, Too Predicatble
Review: This is the first John Saul book I have read, and I chose to read the serial thriller in its entirety rather than in pieces. I liked the developing of the history behind the Asylum while weaving the story of the town and the history it had experienced. I did not like the story being too predictable. Oliver's headaches and some of the background on him seemed to give away the story. It seemed like there was no guessing to the outcome. Overall, I enjoyed the book, but felt that the ending was weak. I think the ending could have been developed better.

Summary: Definately entertaining
Review: This was a good read. The only thing was that it was an obvious attempt at gaining the audience with the same tactics as S.King. Not a bad story though.

Summary: Couldn't wait for the next chronicle!
Review: This was an excellent saga! I enjoyed each chronicle and could not wait till the next one came out. I would suggest to everyone to buy it as one set. Then you don't have to sit in anticipation. This kept me on the edge of my seat and wanting more! I enjoyed the last chapter and was relieved to finally find out why things were happening. This was an excellent effort on John Saul's part and come highly recommended by me. You won't be disappointed in The Blackstone Chronicles!

Summary: Excellent book! One of his best!
Review: Ths first John Saul book I've ever read was Sleepwalk around a year ago, and I've been hokked on John Saul ever since. I've read his latests ones, but his earlier novels Cry for the sinners and Here Comes the Blind Fury are a bit hard to find in Perth, but overrall, The Blackstone Chronicals was very good.
