Retribution.
That’s what this book is. Pure vengeance. I didn’t find it particularly scary, just gory. I’m sure, if a ghost elk was after me, I’d be scared though.

In the first two sections especially, I kept having to reread sections. Somewhere between the action and SGJ’s style, I got lost. There were also a lot of basketball scenes that seemed out of place to me.

However, this is a fantastic spooky season book. Just be prepared for tons of gore, human and animal alike.
