In his novel Daryl Gregory begins establishing his style of deftly drawn protagonists that are sympathetic and believable. His carefully crafted work transcends genre and becomes that rare beast,a good book. The writing style is so fluid and the characters and stories so entertaining that they just come alive in your imagination. I've also read Stony Mayhall which was excellent and took several unexpected but entertaining turns. I hope Daryl Gregory plans to be a prolific author, because when I get through all of his books, I know I'll end up anxiously awaiting the next release. One person found this helpful.

Set in a world where demonic possession is an accepted, albeit misunderstood, occurrence, we follow Del through his own journey of self-awareness.

Even at this distance I could tell he was annoyed. and went back to my conversation. The next time I looked back Lew had stopped midway down the landing. He was staring, but not at me. The Shu’garath sat with his legs over the side, ankles in water, naked except for black plastic goggles on his forehead and a pair of dark nylon trunks.
