South China Sea, the steam frigate HMS Charger pursues a fleet of pirates that have been terrorizing the waters surrounding Hong Kong. In their hull are crates of opium, which are transferred as spoils of war. Suddenly a dark mass appears way above the stars. It looks like a comet, but maybe a dark star. Days later, the crew are experiencing hallucinations and calling them to come to an island for all their dreams to come true. Murders and mutiny on the high sea, with a boatload of horror to keep the pages turning. This was one hell of a good book. Recommend!...more

Horror, blue mutants, time traveling, radiation, drug dealers, and one random alien all in the middle of the Bermuda Triangle. It didn't take long to suck me right on in because I needed to know what was happening to these people. A few edge of the seats moments to keep your heart pounding. I would have loved a better ending. Was hoping for a Dave Jones Locker moment, but alas no. Recommend!...more

Well, that was terrifying. Wallace created one eerie atmosphere. I had no idea what was going to happen next. I loved the two main characters and was holding my breath hoping they would survive. Wonderfully written. Recommend!...more

This was a heart pounding crazy ride from start to finish. It kept me guessing up to the reveal what in the hell was the cause of the murderous rampages. I truly did not see it coming. Then to keep trying to figure out what was going with the main character was mind-bending. Was she mentally unbalanced? Effects of the ship? Maybe just an old-fashioned "I see dead people" issue? The writer did an outstanding job in creating a creepy atmosphere and putting you directly into the story. I wish I could erase my memory and read this one again!! Recommend!...more

That phrase alone will give you chills down your spine. What starts out as a pleasure cruise quickly turns into a nightmare of epic proportions. As the blood flies, the lifeboats disappear, there is one hell of a death party on the main deck. The passengers are helpless, there is nowhere to go. The staff is hiding in their quarters. Something ate the captain, and there is a sweet, innocent little boy wandering the halls. Will anyone survive to see land again?
I enjoyed my time on the bloody cruise. Interesting plot with new creatures to give you chills. Excellent horror read.
