Try Intesity, it's fun, but maybe it's too mainstream and not elitist enough for some ;).

hey, its the stuff i read a lot of when i was younger .. and it went a long way to explain why i really dont like horror fiction .. so much of it is bad ..


john saul, stephen king, god - the lot of the old stand-bys - i dont like them ..

there was one book .. it started with cops (dragon tears ? i dunno there's so many of them) and within 5 pages i was turned off of the characters ...
its the prose - style ... i just find it so ...static .. for lack of a better word (I'M not the writer :p )

i'm not an elitist - but i'm damn fussy - no doubt about that..
