Praise so far for Daddy Won't Kill You: While being reminiscent of The Shining, this still feels at home with the modern paranormal horrors. Vivid and distinctive. Occult horror at its best. One of the stellar parts of the book is how perfectly this heartbreaking family situation has been portrayed. This is especially true in the kids. Their odd ability to be vulnerable one moment and compartmentalize their fear in order to share a giggle the next is brought to life nicely. Grab a copy now and remember to read with the lights on.
