The Nebulon Horror

De: Hugh B. Cave

Narrado por: Anthony Bender

Nebulon, a sleepy little Florida town: It had never known trouble, never expected it from its smallest, most innocent residents - the children. But something awful was growing in the youngest minds. It began with a child's brutal attack on her mother's lover. A pet obscenely mutilated. A baby drowned in the lake. A man blinded, then savagely stabbed to death. As the small, familiar faces turned away without feeling, the clues lead to old Gustave Nebulon's house and a door that, if opened, may release all the hate the world could hold....

Blandness unto death

Blockish narrative, stilted narrator. The most horrifying part is the possibility of a sequel. Ugh.

The Nebulon Horror

I would have been comfortable giving this book a 3 or maybe 4* if it had not been so long. It seemed to drag on for me, yet it felt like a bloated short story. I didn't dislike the concept or the approach to the plot. The characters were pretty vanilla and thin though.
