review 1: It's a bit of a paradox this. Highly entertaining and engrossing, and at the same time quite ridiculous. It could have done with some editing to eliminate some minor problems. For instance, it is established very early on that members of a group of paranormal adepts that have regular meetings are being killed off one by one. One has to ask, if you were a member of that group, why would you attend the next meeting? One might also ask, given that they are gifted psychics, why they didn't see all this coming?... but hey ho! It's fun. It's not Agatha Christie, but it's a page turner, and I'm going to have to read the next one. You can't say fairer than that.
review 2: Interesting enough subject matter, but poor execution. There is no distinction between the narrato... morers voice and that of other characters. And the book makes a big deal out of the protagonist being the narrator (as opposed to some un identified 3rd person view)---yet the same voice/person also narrates parts of the story it is impossible for the protagonist to know or have seen. Finally, the book is guilty of "telling" more then "showing". less
