No. Please. After The Staircase in the Woods, which was an awesome story but had terrible writing, I wasn’t going to read anymore Wendig. But I grabbed this one from the library at the same time and it was already here. I figured it couldn’t be worse. But EVERY PAGE IS A NIGHTMARE.

“Doctor Nahid said he was empathetic.”
“I don’t like that word. Sounds too much like pathetic.”
“No one’s saying that, it’s just a word. Go with empathetic if you prefer.”

WHO THE FUCK EDITED THIS???

“ ‘And I swear they’re looking right at me.’ It wasn’t just that. There were other things bothering her. The way the eyes seemed to be LOOKING at her.”

The Box Man’s eyes “were wire, like the rest of it.” No, the rest of it is BOX. Cardboard box. Like you just told us the page before. Hence Box Man. What the fuck.
