Ungrateful Dead

Rating:
Summary: Ungrateful Dead
Review: Although UNGRATEFUL DEAD is not one of Holleman's better efforts, it can be an entertaining read. His characters are identifiably good and evil, with a simple, straightforward plotline that moves from point A to point B with little digression.

Summary: Don't Bother!
Review: Don't waste your time...the characters aren't even as good as cardboard! the writing is juvenile! and the plot is pathetic! Not worth the time or money!

Rating:
Summary: typical mid-range occult horror
Review: I've read worse, but it could be a lot better. For example, early on the reader gets glimpses of Alana's overall plan but the details are never actually explained. The romance between Alana and Luther is entirely gratuitous and painfully predictable. Most of the characters are far too convenient and the 'throwaway' Malina's two-dimensionalness is not excused by her swift demise. I think the Irish should feel insulted by this schmalzy glamourisation of their pagan history.
