Author: John Farris
Synopsis:
The tale of a distinguished Virginia family, the Bradwins and their cursed bloodline which goes back generations to the darkest Africa. Forces beyond the families control look to destroy them in the name of vengeance.
My Take:
For whatever reason I found this a very hard book to get into. The complex story is good, the characters are rich in development, and it's meticulously plotted. The tale keeps moving along with back story on the families and the the climax wraps up rather quickly.
Perhaps others will enjoy the book more than I did because it's on several top horror novel lists.
Rating: In the middle
