The Compressionist

Rate this book
There is a man who doesn't age. A man who slips through the world and hides his true face. A man who needs other people to survive. He feeds off them and he might just choose you as his next meal. All he needs is a chance to understand you and something that belongs to you. Then it can begin again and he can fend off the hunger for a little while longer.
Enter the world of the Compressionist, enter the world of the Proxy.

Im not one for horror stories usuall but I saw this book recommended by some of my Goodreads friends and thought Id give it a try. Its a short story really and one I found hard to put down. I did guess the ending but that did not stop me from enjoying the writing. Not so much scary as creepy but well written and written with a twinkle in the authors eye. 8/10
