The premise of Wilson’s book was reasonable enough, but it could have been a far more frightening and gripping book if time had been taken to build the suspense, and not give away too much too soon; to allow the story to build more slowly and to show more of what was going on, rather than tell all there was to know. Most of the ‘horror’ in the book came from half-heartedly written descriptions of a person being eaten alive by the bad guys in the story… and it was never really explained who those bad guys were, or where they came from – though it was overly stated as to what they were.
Although the characters were likable enough, they were somewhat two dimensional and overly stereotypical. There was nothing really outstanding about any of them. I thought at times Wilson overdid the effort to make the narrative sound childlike, since one of the main characters in the story is a young boy, it made for a very self-conscious text.
In the end I felt I didn't really understand the 'how' of the defeat of the bad guys either... other than a poorly hidden admonition for people to believe in themselves and anything is possible. With a rewrite, the book could be much better than it is currently. (
