Hunter Shea is an author I very much admire, having read Creature and Ghost Mine, which I really enjoyed. His writing is crisp, and he’s brilliant when it comes to underlying horror, of building tension in his prose before the gore kicks in. Unfortunately, I was a little disappointed by Misfits. I’ll admit, in part this kind of horror just isn’t my style, as I’m finding more and more. With many books like this, I know there will be many who really appreciate what Shea does here, and will get far more enjoyment out of this than I did.
