About this eBook
The whole of bestselling author Raymond E. Feist backlist, master of magic and adventure, now available in ebook
Successful screenwriter Phil Hastings decides to move his family from sunny California to a ramshackle farmhouse in New York State. The idea is to take some time out, relax and pick up the threads of his career as a novelist.
Good plan, bad choice. The place they choose is surrounded by ancient woodland. The house they choose is the centrepoint of a centuries-old evil intent on making its presence felt to intruders.

Read this originally when I was about 11. Clearly a lot of subject matter went over my head but I was fascinated and frightened. After rereading it 25 years later, the story is still just as good, it just doesn't hold up compared to most things I can compare it to. Not enough depth to the characters or history and information regarding the fae. Worth a read if you get a good deal.

I've previously read Magician and the following 2 books. This is nothing like them. This is more like a horror novel and reminds me of James Herbert more than Feist's other work. I've been meaning to read this one for a long time, and while I'm glad I read it, I doubt I'll be rereading it as I've done with his other books.

Although many would scoff at the idea Raymond Feist is in the same league as Tolkien. Not only did he pound out over thirty best sellers he also wrote this brilliant read that is loosely based on Shakespeare's "the great hunt". Kudos to Feist!
