Be sure to read the many footnotes…they are almost as good as the book and I loved the titles of the chapters. Not to take anything away from the book…it does something that horror, supernatural genre seldom, if ever does. It gives an almost lovable persona to the demons and other creatures of Connolly’s vivid mind. Imagine… if you can… a billion plus year old demon having a birthday party complete with hats and balloons that they set on fire when they try to blow them up. One candle for every billion years since it has been alive since the creation of the universe and besides a billion candles wouldn’t fit on the cake anyway. This is the final book in this trilogy. While I hate to see this bunch of strange creatures resigned to the archives…John Connolly does a nice job of tying up the loose ends, and wraps up some questions about the first and second book. Overall… it's a great ending to a great little series. The entire trilogy was not just riotously funny or effectively creepy… but both. sin reseñas | añadir una reseña

Samuel Johnson and his faithful dachshund Boswell join with a ragtag band of dwarves, policemen, and polite monsters when the Multiverse is threatened with destruction, starting in the little English town of Biddlecombe.
"In this clever and quirky follow-up to The Gates and The Infernals, Samuel Johnson's life seems to have finally settled dow-n-after all, he's still got the company of his faithful dachshund Boswell and his bumbling demon friend Nurd; he has foiled the dreaded forces of darkness not once but twice; and he's now dating the lovely Lucy Highmore. But things in the little English town of Biddlecombe rarely run smoothly for long. Shadows are gathering in the skies; a black heart of pure evil is bubbling with revenge; and it rather looks as if the Multiverse is about to come to an end, starting with Biddlecombe. When a new toy shop's opening goes terrifyingly awry, Samuel must gather a ragtag band of dwarfs, policemen, and very polite monsters to face down the greatest threat the Multiverse has ever known, not to mention assorted vampires, a girl with an unnatural fondness for spiders, and highly flammable unfriendly elves. The latest installment of John Connolly's wholly original and creepily imaginative Samuel Johnson Tales, The Creeps is humorous horror for anyone who enjoys fiction at its best"-- No se han encontrado descripciones de biblioteca. |
