"An English Ghost Story"
By: Kim Newman

I got this because I've really liked to loved his other books, and I really enjoyed this book as well. It was well done and the only even remotely negative thing I have to say was that the ending did seem slightly rushed, especially when compared to the slow build up during the rest of the book with a sudden "and then everything was OK".

But the book as a whole was well done and interesting, with enough of a different spin on the standard ghost story to stop this book from coming across as being unoriginal let alone boring. The fact that the book wasn't too – expect perhaps for the slightly rushed ending – meant that it didn't come across as rehashing ideas. It's not perfect, but still enjoyable in particular if you enjoyed his other books.
