Very creepy and Stephen Kingish. Nicholas returns to his boyhood village and tries to uncover the reason for many children's disappearances and the secret of the old woods. Oh yea, he also sees ghosts.
What makes this book so good is the descriptive passages. The author really puts the reader right in the thick of things, or the thick of the woods!!!!! For example "...how vines curled up trunks like possessive serpents, rose straight like zippers, or clung with their own green claws like headless jade dragons." Oh and wait until you read about the spiders!!!!! yuck!!!!
I could not read this book before going to bed. yes, it was that creepy!!!!
