5+Stars!
THE MOOR is an astonishingly exciting, engrossing, heartwrenching, horror novel. What a creative premise has author Sam Haysom invented, compelling eager readers to track its nefarious and multifarious paths, anxious to see Evil put down.
THE MOOR is a coming-of-age narrative balanced atop a foundation of Horror, and even in the midst of the dangers and the pervasive evil, readers can rejoice as a group of early-adolescent friends bond together and as each evolves individually. There are multiple instances of animal sadism, adult psychological abuse of children, and of course the unavoidable deaths caused by this cleverly constructed and I venture to say, unique in type, Monster. The writing is taut and riveting and the plot cogent, the ending bringing satisfaction and closure. An excellent book throughout; I eagerly anticipate more.
