The Troop by Nick Cutter
My rating: 5 of 5 stars
Sometimes you just want a good, fast-paced, gross horror novel, and Nick Cutter’s THE TROOP certainly delivers on that, but Cutter also gives us well-drawn characters we come to care about and situations that both terrify (that cave!) and move us emotionally (the outstanding turtle scene). The book started off slowly for me, but boy did it pick up! By the end, I was convinced I was reading a horror novel that would be remembered as a classic for years to come. Highly recommended, as long as you can stomach a lot of very gross body horror and gore.
