Definitely a strong novel that often reads like a found-footage movie. Apparently Gemma Files was once a film critic, and that comes through in this story of a film professor who sets out to write a book about a lost Canadian filmmaker and ends up confronting a demigod. Strong characters, interesting tonal shifts, excellent mythology, and a story that rolls headlong into a classic confrontation between good and evil.

is hard to find these days. Don’t get me wrong, because I love zombies. It’s just that the popularity of the undead has lead to a pretty watered-down output. But this one really kept me on the hook. I love the basic idea of the book, and I think it was handled very well. Plus, it’s set in my home state, which was fun for me. In all, a good read and a solid recommendation from me.
I got some good laughs out of this strange little novel, and Croshaw definitely knows what comedic buttons to push without appearing to try too hard. It just took quite a while for me to connect with any of the side characters. Once I did, the book came back into focus for me and I enjoyed it quite a lot.
