 Sara2012 | Dec 7, 2013 |   Cette critique a été rédigée pour LibraryThing Member Giveaways. A quick read that packs one hard punch. This was an amazing short story to read with a perfect balance of blood and plot. I never wanted to put it down and finished it all at once. For many readers the beginning will seem out of place with the rest of the book, but don't worry, it will all be revealed in the end. This was a wonderful read and I highly recommend it for fans of horror suspense/thrillers.Note: Though this book was a free gift from the author, the content of my review was in no way influenced by the gifting. The book speaks for itself and my review would have been worded just this way even if I'd gone out and bought it. I also give bonus points for Text To Speech enabling on Kindle format.... but that also wasn't a factor in the above review. (  ) mirrani | Sep 30, 2012 | Cette critique a été rédigée pour LibraryThing Member Giveaways. The beginning of this e-book really threw me off because it deals with something that is historical. While it is still horrific, i am not really into history, so i was thinking oh no... but wait... it was a plot point that was crucial to the whole story. Once the tale was told and the story really got flowing, it was hard to stop for a break! The tension was just under the surface for about half the book, not knowing exactly where you are being led and then BAM! It hits you all at once and does not let go! This is a fantastic tale that i recommend to any suspense / thriller / horror / lover!!! I received a free copy of this e-book in exchange for a review. I was not required to write a positive review, only an honest one. (  ) boipayn | Sep 28, 2012 | aucune critique | ajouter une critique

Nominated for the Shirley Jackson AwardOne man ravaged by disease, the other by war, their stories--and fates--bound by an ancient entity that thrives on suffering. For Detective Ernest Riley, the path to damnation begins with an anonymously mailed recording detailing a series of grisly murders. Can Riley unravel its secrets without sacrificing his humanity? Or will he surrender to the RAGE inside him? Strom Wheldon has returned from Iraq a literal half-man. But he's lost more than his legs to that desert Hell. He's lost his will to live. Can love save him from the RAGE eating him from within? Or will a gift given in innocence cost him everything? "28 Teeth of Rage has the bite of a crocodile. Drake tears a hole right through modern horror. This guy isn't on the way; he's kicking in the door." - Laird Barron, award winning author of THE IMAGO SEQUENCE, OCCULTATION, and THE CRONING. "A powerful work of horror. Drake's prose beats with a million-mile-an-hour force, propelling you through meat and sinew with a terrifying bite. This is not a work for the weak, for the timid. With beautiful language and raw power, Drake takes you on wrenching journey into our worst desires. A propulsive read by a fantastic new voice in the genre, one you're likely to never forget."--Simon Strantzas, author of "Nightingale Songs" "This is a tale of possession and madness, but the kind that any sane person will understand. Drake gets inside the heart and mind of each character and never stops digging for the truth. You know these people. I know them. They have suffered terribly, and they are haunted by their loss. At the same time they are the inheritors of the spectacular horrors human beings have hurled at one another throughout our blood-spattered history. This is a hell of a ghost story, one you won't forget thanks to Drake's storytelling ingenuity, but also because it springs directly from our collective well of grief and rage. This animal howl- for justice, for retribution- resonates within us, and is unanswerable." - S.P. Miskowski, author of the the Shirley Jackson Award nominated novel KNOCK KNOCK Aucune description trouvée dans une bibliothèque |

(M69'12) Twenty-eight Teeth of Rage

The story was a little confusing when I first started it, but then it made since when you read more. It was a very quick read since you get so engrossed in the story.
It has a good plot twist that you don't see coming.
It does hint at some history at the beginning, but if you don't like history, don't worry, it adds substance to the storyline. (
