I was given a complimentary copy of the book for review. I must say it was quite original I don't believe I have ever read anything quite like it before.
A man awakens in a strange place, isn't even sure if he is indoors or out, or how he came to be there. No food, no water, and strange creatures the likes of which have never been seen anywhere else. Very original and imaginative. I was pleased to learn there will be more to come, since this is the first book in a series. ( )

James Halldon wakes up and doesn't know where or who he is.
He slowly gathers up some supplies and sets off to see if he can figure things out. Along the way he encounters some very strange creatures and befriends one of them-Dogthing. James and Dogthing make their way through a very strange and original world filled with zombies, gargants and a crazy guy named Cutterjack.
I thought it was pretty well written and I enjoyed it enough to read the second book in the series. ( )

I got this book from Librarything early reviewers contest. It was a good book. It was short but really intriguing and exciting. The ending just left you with more questions than answers. I can't wait to read the next one and get the answer that I need. ( )

The main character is dumped into a world of darkness with no idea how he got there. So, as the reader, are you. As the hero explores his surroundings so do you. At first it's by touch, then he manages to create light. He finds himself within a giant junkyard, yet in a place that is clearly... well, somewhere else. This book was an amazing read and a big part is exploring the world with the hero so I don't want to give too much away.

The writing is very good, with vivid descriptions that really transport you into the world. It comes with a number of scary enemies, in particular one named Cutterjack (I'll let you read and find out more). The book builds to a very satisfying end which still leaves the door open for the next book in the series. It's so good that I went out and bought the omnibus of books 1 to 3 immediately (it was cheaper than buying 2 and 3 separately). Highly recommended. ( )

Is this another Stephen King? This book absolutely had me in another world and the thought to return to my real world was not allowed in.. Until I turned the last page. The ending? Not what I expected and I loved it!!! I was so absorbed in this novel and I felt like I was right there with the character trying to make sense of this world he had woken up in. I loved Rudy.. so kind and a almost scary-cat but always faithful. James wakes up in a strange land and it is in between the real world and something so horrific and yet he finds a way to exist and search for his way home. The amazing creatures scar you and tug at your heart too. This was one book that kept me up way past my bedtime and was simply worth it. This book was a mix between Twilight zone, the outer limits and Stephen King’s books and…Spielberg needs to read this book and bring it to life on screen!!!
This book was bought through Amazon ( )
