My fellow horror fanatics are like, yeah, okay. Right? Par for the course. I thought so, too. Ken threw some fabulous curve balls in here though and coupled with the gruesome details it's absolutely spectacular.
Ken has such a talent for bringing to life some of the saddest most miserable MMCs, main male characters, that I have ever had the misfortune and pleasure to meet. It's like if a car wreck was a person. It's fabulous. Wormfood introduces us to Kevin Miller. Oh man, is he a sorry sounding s.o.b. He's a dumpster fire and a half. But like a mold, he grows on you. Trust me, you want to meet him.
The locale on this one is great too. I love a tropical paradise tucked away in the slums. It's perfect. Now since it's a horror story, you know it won't be serene, so that makes it even better. The details are so well done here too. The pool, the alcoves, the buildings, the huts, and even the terrain. No mental expense was spared! I adore great world building and Wormfood definitely has that.
The characters besides Kevin whom I've already mentioned are well fleshed out and just add to the story as they should. Now, for those of you who are sensitive about children and them being exposed to adult subjects, consider yourself warned. Nathan, at age thirteen, sees and experiences many things that are highly inappropriate for his age. His inclusion adds to the horror in a whole different way.
Those who know my blog know I don't do spoilers so I never go too far into the books that I discuss in my blog. So, I will end my thoughts here with my official review.
Can you handle it? I dare you!
Terrifying, horrifying, and so good!
This one is not for the faint of heart or stomach. Ken La Salle is back and this time he's combining his unique talent of depicting the most miserable MMCs with the stomach churning details of a cannibalistic end of the world style outbreak. It's detailed, twisty, and gory in all the best ways. It is like if a more sentient The Walking Dead met an adult film on a hedonistic island. If you are bold and not easily sickened, pick this one up.
When you pick this one up, I'd love it to hear your progress! Comment on the blog here and let me know if you were triumphant and bested the whole book. Did you have to stop? If so, how far did you get? Which part got your stomach churning?
So, are you game to try it? I dare you! Wormfood is on sale now here: https://a.co/d/aCOwBKt
