    Richard Matheson: I Am Legend

    I just finished this story and I thought it was so well written. Matheson takes you into Robert Neville's world. You feel every emotion that Robert does and just when you think the poor guy has endured enough, something else "tops the cake." I didn't want it to end. Especially the way it...

    Really - and I mean truly - scary Books

    It's been at least 15 years since I've read King, but Pet Cemetery IMO was scary. SPOILERS....Especially when the father wakes up in bed and thinks he was dreaming, until he steps out of bed to see his feet covered in dirt!!:eek: One of these days I'll get into King again and will not know...

    Most important part of a story?

    I think that if you have a character in your mind and you can picture them as plain as day(almost as if they are sitting right next to you), then plots and settings can fall ino place.

    It's been a mild winter(20'sF and 30's)so far here. I would like to see a bit more snow. Actually, I'm really waiting to get dumped on.:D

    I know there's horror threads already...

    I have Sacrament, just haven't gotten to it yet. I appreciate the advice and it will be the next Barker book I read.:)

    I know there's horror threads already...

    I'm not sure if I'd call it weak, it is a bit winded though. I think it had a great beginning, it had me captured. But now I am at the point where if it doesn't pick up again I will be dissappointed. What is do you recommend for Barker? This is only the second I've read.

    Don't know what to tell you Stewart, but I liked it. :) Is it my favorite Koontz book? Nope. Alot of people rant and rave about Phantoms and that's the one I can't stand.

    Dean Koontz

    I liked Fear Nothing and Seize the Night. You have to read them in that order, they are a set. I also liked Coldfire.

    What's your favourite word? And worst?

    Some favs are crimson, twilight, tranquil. Worst would have to be terminal and cross.

    recommendations for newbies to horror

    Hmm, when I first began reading horror, I think I started with Dean Koontz or John Saul. IMO they're both good. Some more scarey than others. I recommend Richard Laymon too.

    Intensity is a good suggestion, I'd forgotten about that one. The Bad Place by Dean Koontz is good also.

    How much reading time?

    We were always in bed by 8 pm when I was a kid. We only got to stay up later on friday and saturday nights. I can't really complain about reading time. I work four 12 hour days and have 3 days off. I don't have kids and try to get the mundane things, such as house-cleaning, out of the way...

    books on your to read list.

    Something Wicked This Way Comes would be a good one to read. It's by Ray Bradbury right? I also wouldn't mind trying Eldest. That's a series right??

    books on your to read list.

    I haven't tried to make a list. I feel that if I do, I'd have to follow it. I never know what I might feel like reading. So I try to keep it more a mystery when I go searching through my piles of books. But I've seen some interesting ones posted that I might check out.
