4.5 stars. Quick story, really a vignette that would otherwise take up space (which could be beter used) in one of the books. Eldrich murder mystery where the MC manages to make references to a lot of teen slasher films, which this situation was set up to emulate. As the author says, you don't need to read this to follow the series, but it's a quick diversion.

A great little short story

Ever wonder what would happen if someone competent ended up in a horror movie, well wonder no more. John the faceless man ends up going through another door into a setup right out of an 80s slasher flick. This is a great little diversion side story and a lot of fun. Enjoy it.

This was a fun fast read. I like the idea of this, though seeing an entire book would have been interesting. This was our hero in a typical haunted house scenario, creepy but not that scary. Now, I'd like to see him take on some vampires. It's more of a long short story, but it was a fun read yesterday, something to spend the time on while waiting for book 5.

fast

There is no wasted time in this short. It doesn’t change anything substantial for the main line of novels, but it was nice to visit.

I enjoy the series.

Easy to read fast entertainment this book. Read this in a couple hours. The book ended when it should have.

This one surprised me by being more horror than fantasy, and I don't like horror. However, it was well written and moved fast. I would have given it a 5/5 if it had been less horror.
