Horns
By Joe Hill
- Release Date: 2010-02-16
- Genre: Mysteries & Thrillers
Description
Joe Hill's critically acclaimed, New York Times bestselling, Bram Stoker Award-winning debut chiller, Heart-Shaped Box, heralded the arrival of new royalty onto the dark fantasy scene. With Horns, he polishes his well-deserved crown. A twisted, terrifying new novel of psychological and supernatural suspense, Horns is a devilishly original triumph for the Ray Bradbury Fellowship recipient whose story collection, 20th Century Ghosts, was also honored with a Bram Stoker Award—and whose emotionally powerful and macabre work has been praised by the New York Times as, "wild, mesmerizing, perversely witty…a Valentine from hell."
Reviews
Horns
2By picasso's motherThis story is rather silly and at the same time it’s gruesome. While I love reading Joe Hill, I didn’t enjoy this one.Repetitive
3By SquirrelGirl08Great author but you end up hearing almost the same exact story from every character’s perspective, makes it hard to stay interested.Error in download
4By jenbernathWhen I try to download the sample I get 20th century ghosts in my library. Is there a fix?Well written
5By CdhbfxI'm not a big reader. I like books I have a hard time getting more than half way through one that doesn't keep me going. This book, however, is one of the best books I've read in a long time. I can't put it down.Worth the read.
5By DbcbfcWish I could find more books like this. This one went a little to dark for me and a little to religious but it's still a good book.Great story!
5By Our HomeyEngaging & fun all the way!The best book I've read in a long time
5By johnsafoxOver the past few weeks I've read about a dozen books from various 'scary' book lists. While Horns is not necessarily terrifying, it's the only book I've read out of the dozen in which I became completely absorbed. It's loaded with that special brand of suspense that keeps you burning through pages while simultaneously making you almost dread what you might read next. A kind of literary aversion/compulsion. This is the first experience I've had with Joe Hill's writing but it will not be the last. It's nice to find a relatively new author whose upcoming publications are worth serious anticipation.Devil in a Blue Dress
