When the haunted 52 year old Professor Dale Stewart decides to return to his childhood stomping ground to revisit the inner demons of his past (by writing a novel) and expunge the errors of his ways, he encounters more than he bargained for with spirits from beyond as well as some pretty nasty humanoid beings.
While satisfyingly creepy, I did not find this novel truly scary like The Terror, but did like the way it was presented with the ghost of Duane (his genius boyhood friend) joining in the narration.
Very good psychological mystery-thriller.....Love Dan Simmons' writing!.....3.5 Stars.
(did not read Summer of Night first, but still intend to)
