I love a good horror novel and this was my first by Nicholson. The story was a perfect blend of horror and gore, psychological thrills and twists and turns. The central theme is that of good versus evil, but it is presented im a truly unique way, making the reader question just which side is the good and which is the evil. The cult philosophy is very evident as the characters in the novel interact with each other and change, blurring the lines between what is real and what is cult-minded. The action was fast-paced and had all the elements of a truly wonderful horror novel. I was kept on the edge, constantly questioning and wondering what was going to happen next. The "creepy" factor was high and I loved it! I highly recommend this read!
