I kinda feel dupped on this. If I'd known the only spooky month element of this book was that it starts on Halloween, I would have waited until November to read it. But now I've finished it and have the sequel to get through today.
The book itself is decent. It's a modern day story of the inquisition. The US government has someone come under the control of a group of zealots that are trying to force the second coming.
This was actually a decent dark fantasy. The characters are believable, the situation hits a bit close to home right now for a lot of us here in the US which adds to the whole ambience of the story.
Would I have normally read this in October? No. But I don't really regret that I did either.
