If you want to jump into Laymon, make Endless Night your intended spot. Most of the pages are blood-soaked Laymon doesn't hesitate to describe the violence and horrible happenings in gruesome, unflinching detail. In this case, two kids - Jody and Andy - survive a home invasion by a group of psychopaths. This book is a little long when you look at it from a side view, but when you're reading it, you'd never notice the length because you're so preoccupied with what you're reading. 'Endless Night' has a typical Laymon plot - he takes normal people, puts them in a crazy, violent situation, and then makes them run for their lives. Laymon whips up a dessert full of dark atmosphere, rich characters, smooth pacing, and mouth- watering suspense. From the very first few pages, tension is high enough to induce a nervous breakdown in the reader. The book starts off with horror and ends with even worse horror. After reading 'Endless Nights,' however, I just might jump on the Laymon happy go lucky bandwagon after all! I mean, I had heard he was the greatest thing this side of horror, but just wasn’t feeling it. I have to say I was disappointed reading 'Body Rides' with Laymon.

Lots of wonderful pervy scenes, lots of wonderful gory scenes and a nice fast-paced, sicko type story to get you all geared up for halloween. If you haven't read any Laymon before then you're in for a treat, and if you have then you know just what kind of treats you're going to get, so it's win-win all the way. There's a slight difference with this story though since the chapters alternate between the Jody/Andy viewpoint and one of the Krulls' viewpoints, a real sicko called Simon. We follow Jody, who's a typical Laymon protagonist, young, beautiful, sexy etc, and a young boy she's babysitting called Andy. This one is about a group of guys calling themselves the Krulls after a group of cannibal killers in a slasher novel(I wonder if that's a real novel?) that spend their time snatching young ladies and raping, torturing and killing them, and all for kicks. A plucky schoolkid and a crazy killer do battle Endless Night is a terrifying journey into evil from horror master, Richard Laymon. There's plenty of wonderful descriptions of girls body's and clinging clothes, and the usual gore is there too, in droves. If you've read any Richard Laymon at all then you know what to expect.
