Dean Koontz, move over. Stephen King, watch it, there's a new guy in town and he's cutting in on your territory. And he's really, really good, too.
In the little Maine town of Dark Harbor, an old evil dwells. Paul Stanford, a man raised there feels compelled to return home. He re-meets Jenny Gazio, a former love. Paul has 'the gift', something the lurking evil needs to unlock the forces of Hell. The evil is not above using Jenny to see to it Paul uses his gift.
Night Demons is an excellent book, pure horror, with a capital H, just as the masters of this field write. It has the same attention to detail, the "nice little things" that make the story flow. There is plenty of well-done humor and characters that feel real, even minor ones whose lifespan is tragically brief.
This was an excellent job, Mr. Hopkins. Most excellent. Five Stars.
