The Possessors

Rating:
Summary: This book will haunt your very soul
Review: I have never read this book for myself. My father read this story to my brothers and I when we were younger. I cannot stress to you the profound impact this book has had upon me. The fear that John Christopher creates, the very fight for ones own identity is gripping and terrifying. To think that these possessors can take all that you are and shut it away so powerfully that nothing you do can change that, or unlock it, or ever communicate outside of yourself again, is one of them ost frightening concepts that I have ever seen or heard in printed page or word.

John Christopher creates believable characters, not all of them very nice people. As they try and cope with the horror that descends upon them, one cannot help but iagine that you ytourself are transported to that Swiss Chalet, cut off from all humanity, from all aid. And there are people out there waiting to take you. I have found this book in my thoughts and in my dreams many times. This is not one that will ever leave you once yo have read it. It is truly unforgettable. It will possess you too.

Do not read this book unless you are willing to change yourself forever.

Summary: Unforgettable!
Review: I read this book for the first time when I was a teenager and I have been looking for a copy of my own ever since (I had forgotten the title and finally tracked it down). The story with its vivid characters has stayed with me for thirty years. The author made me feel as though I was in the lodge with the trapped guests and staff, feeling the dread they feel, sharing their helplessness. Find this book and read it!!
