The child, Maggie, appears to have been abducted by a seedy character, but no one can agree on what he looked like or if he even existed.Īs the three seek out the missing girl, they learn that another child has gone missing too, this time from a trailer park. Not long after, John and Dave receive a call about a missing child, but the circumstances surrounding it are above the pay grade of any of the police and seem much more in the line of these two, who specialise in the unusual, the supernatural and the downright weird. They’re not entirely sure what it is They wanted, but at a guess it’s the vial Amy has just tossed into the river. John, Dave and Amy have just fled from Them. Instead, assuming this was a standalone, I’ve somehow skipped ahead to the third book in the series, crashing headfirst into a world that would terrify Stephen King and greatly amuse Douglas Adams. David Wong has been on my radar for years thanks to his novel John Dies at the End, which I’ve always found an intriguing title but I’ve never got round to reading. Not for the first time, I’ve stumbled into a series in progress, but it didn’t seem to matter so much here. ![]() “It rained like we were a splatter of bird shit God was trying to hose off his deck.” ![]()
