by Edward Lorn
I suppose the real problem I had with this story is that I read it immediately after the amazing "The Heart's Invisible Furies" by John Boyne which was a literary tour de force. To step down from that high and to read what is no more than an average tale is a bit of a disappointment. Serial Killer D...
[I received a copy of this book through NetGalley, in exchange for an honest review.]Well, that was quite a twisted ride here. A sort of “making of a serial killer”, seen through the eyes of the killer's mother, Ella, as she reminisces about the past after her son's death, while stranger and strange...
4.5 freaking intense stars. Fantastic narration ! Get this on audio folks, you will love it.Now for a review. How am I supposed to review this Mr. Lorn ? If I talk about any of the parts it will open a window into the delicious wickedness that these pages slowly revealed in a soul screaming process ...
Wow. This book. It is scary, creepy and gross all at the same time. Dane is a terrifying character and what he does to people... let me just say ewww. His nickname is the Rest Stop Dentist because he takes his victim's teeth and leaves them in a trail leading to the body. Dane has been executed by t...

Fug.LAD is classic E. Fast moving and brutal. I should have been able to see the ending coming, but I ...

Not only is her child gone, he died a monster. A killer. Dane Peters, the Rest Stop Dentist. A criminal who has ...
The author gifted me with a copy of this book. That has not compromised my ability to write an honest and critical review of this book. 2/2 - At the end of chapter two and I already feel like committing bloody violence. I was hoping, but knew it wasn't going to happen due to her earlier attempt t...
You know when you're reading a book and by the time you get to the end, everything is wrapped up all beautifully in a neat little package, almost a "happily ever after thing"? Yeah, that was what I thought was happening with this book and I have to admit I was a little cheesed off about it cause th...
I rarely read horror novels, and even rarer for me to read a contemporary one. Yet there is something about Edward Lorn‘s novels resembling peanut butter cups, fizzy drinks, or crack cocaine (the quality stuff, not the cheap stuff); I simply don’t want to put his book down once I have started one. I...
