I had just finished Dan Simmon's The Terror and was looking for more horror books to get into. I almost mistook this for YA (especially after reading the 900+ pages of The Terror) and almost didn't continue, but it definitely is not for the young. The story get's very graphic/gory a few chapters in. The story is not original, but the author still does a good job conveying the emotions these boys feel. I like how the chapters rotate between the story being told, clippings from articles, transcribed audio from science experiments, and post-event interviews during the "investigation." I couldn't help thinking all throughout the book that it would make a good gory horror movie ala The Evil Dead remake. Definitely a quick read!
