Review of Sam by Iain Rob Wright
Sam by Iain Rob Wright
My rating: 1 of 5 stars
I wanted to like this book. I love horror stories and so wanted to enjoy this book, but I didn't. I read this book in a dark room with the only illumination coming from the kindle for pc on my laptop, yet I never felt scared. While there are events that take place in this story that if I experienced in real life would cause me to become incontinent, both fecal and urinary, reading about them did nothing for or to me.
I couldn't empathize with the characters or make sense of some of their actions. At one point in the story the man charged with looking after the safety and well-being of Sam and his mother, decides to leave them in order to get help since the phones are down. Why not send one of the other minions to get help? They're screw-ups? Don't trust them? Then why leave them with your charges?
There was so much denial from the characters, they even had me concocting alternative theories like magnetic door locks, the house was actually in a dome or Bush/Cheney had something to with it.
I've heard good things about the author, Iain Rob Wright, and while I don't recommend this title(even the ending wasn't enough to bump this up to 2 stars), I look forward to reading some of his other works.
