Samenvatting

A plucky schoolkid and a crazy killer do battle...

Endless Night is a terrifying journey into evil from horror master, Richard Laymon. Perfect for fans of Stephen King and Dean Koontz.

'This author knows how to sock it to the reader' - The Times

Jody Fargo is sweet sixteen but tougher than she looks - she has to be. She's sleeping over at a friend's when the killers break in. They slaughter the family but Jody escapes, rescuing twelve-year-old Andy on the way...

Simon Quirt doesn't seem the kind of fellow who would rape and murder in the dead of night. But, together with his friends, that's just what he does. Now Simon is alone. His task is to track down the only eyewitnesses to the massacre and dispose of them. Simon just can't wait to get his hands on Jody...

What readers are saying about Endless Night:

'Endless Night is one of Richard Laymon's most gut-wrenching and compulsive novels and is a must-have for all horror fans. The narrative is unrelenting, propelling you from page one into a terrifying roller-coaster ride'

'This book is outstanding. I'm totally addicted to Laymon's work, but this is by far the best I've read... Utterly brilliant'

'Simply one of the best novels I've ever read'

    Whereas some authors such as Stephen King might open a 500+ page novel with a monotonous opening ramble that lasts fifty pages, Laymon, in his infinite wisdom, goes straight for the toast. A family are asleep for the night, nice and happy, with a pal staying over, when sudenly the house is broken into by a murderous gang of pyschotic teenage-boys. The family is slaughtered, but only after they`ve been subjected to sado-masichistic sexual abuse of the grossest order. But two people escape, the pal who had been sleeping over at her friends house, and the youngest boy of the household.

    ENDLESS NIGHT is a storming book, and often chosen as a favourite by Laymons fans. Possibly it`s my favourite, too, as there`s simply so much in there. For me, as with ISLAND, the climax - the last few pages - seemed a little cliched and dissappointing, but the rest of it was superb and gripped me in a big way.

    One little thing I really liked was the gang calling themselves the Killer Krulls, and explaining that they chose this name from a "trashy horror novel". The novel in question is Laymon`s own early book, THE WOODS ARE DARK, proving that the author doesn`t take himself too seriously; a good thing in my book.

    But anyway, in ENDLESS NIGHT, he`s created a scary novel. The story itself, though immensly gripping and inventive, isn`t really frightening; it`s the concept that terrifies; that this kind of thing, this very slaughter, rape and such that Laymon describes, is all very plausible indeed. I just hope and pray the book doesn`t fall into the wrong hands and get emulated by some sick individual with less morals than a drunken existentialist rabbi on Sunday.

    I`d give the book 9/10.
