Raymond M Hall's books have been described by reviewers in glowing terms as a mixture of Thriller, Mystery, and Romance; indicating that readers find their individual tastes in his writing. As one reviewer commented on his novel, "The Haunting": Tremendously satisfying writing and character/time interplay make this a book to treasure. Think Poe, Doyle, King….......
The comedic side of the author is displayed in "The Importance of Being Roger". The subject of the book, Roger Sidebottom, can be seen either as a downright villain or a modern day anti-hero. However, within his character, you are bound to recognise somebody you know!
Welcome to my worst nightmare: Dolls. Cassey is a doll possessed and takes no prisoners. She ruins lives of every family she resides in. Cunning and conniving Cassey truly is a source of deep evil. No one is safe from her ultimate goal of wiping out human existence.
Okay I have read a bunch of horror books based on dolls. This is the absolute best out there. I loved the backstory and the history of Cassey. Recommend!
First time reading this authors work and really enjoyed it. Interesting story and characters with lots of historic information added to make a bigger impact. Will be reading more from this author in the future
This was an interesting book. I didn't find it scary at all, though Cassey had creepy elements. What I did enjoy was how Cassey was present during important moments in history, such as the sinking of the Titanic and World War 2, and how the doll came to change over to a new little girl owner during each of these moments. I started to lose interest about halfway through though; I think for me, the story just lost its momentum and Cassey kept flitting through families, wrecking lives along the way, but I was hoping it would have been more scary and sinister, which wasn't the case. It was an ok read.
Casey is an evil doll possessed by the demonic spirit of Lilith who is tasked with ushering in “darkness” to the world. The book spans a 52 year period of time during which Cassey passes through the hands of multiple little girls and bring death and destruction into the lives of the girls, as well as their families. The book is entertaining, but perhaps covers too much ground and too many characters to create strong reader engagement and the level of suspense expected in the horror genre. There are other “possessed doll” stories that do a better job of investing readers in the story outcome.
Ahhh man what can I say, I couldn't put this book down!!! So captivating, you have to see what happens next, this is a must read, I can recommend to anyone who loves a creepy yet entertaining tale. Thank you too The Author Raymond M Hall great work man, look forward to your next book.
First book by this author and I enjoyed it very much. Was a bit disappointed it didn’t scare me as much as I wanted it too, but I think with books you don’t get the “jump” factor like you would get with a movie. But I’d highly recommend and will look to read books by this author again 👍🏼
Cassey the killer doll would give Chucky a run for his money. An absolute blockbuster, take note all ye horror fans! Read this book it’s absolutely brilliant!
Not what I thought it would be. Had to do with different wars and world issues. I skipped a lot to get thru it. I hate not finishing a book. Would not recommend.
