Product Description

In the woods are six dead trees. The killing trees. That's where they take them. People like Neala and her friend Sherri, and the Dills family. Innocent travellers on vacation, seized and bound, stripped of their valuables and shackled to the trees to wait. In the woods. In the dark.

My First Laymon Book5
This was the first book of Laymon's that I have ever read and I was hooked. This book punches you in the face from page 1 and does not stop until the last. I sat down and finished it in a few hours, which is quite a feat for me. If this is your first Laymon book, you will not be disappointed!

From J. Kaye's Book Blog4
When two parties, Neala and Sherri, The Dill family and Cordelia's boyfriend, get caught, they are chained up to six dead trees. But one of the capturers, Johnny Robins, comes back to save them. As soon as he finishes releasing them, the Krulls start attacking. They start getting separated. One of them, Ruth Dills, gets caught and here husband Lander Dills, goes back to save her. Meanwhile Cordelia Dills and her boyfriend Ben wait for there parents to catch up. Johnny, Neala, and Sherri go on ahead. But while separated people get killed and one gets captures. And more on the history and life of the Krulls is revealed.

What I liked best was the jam-packed suspense scenes. My favorite character was Lander Dill. He is funny, poetic, and is pretty good at killing Krulls.

Great 1st read4
This is my first Laymon novel. I really enjoyed all of it and am looking forward to reading more of his novels. I just happened to pick this up in the book store and read the first chapter about how this was pieced back together. I would rather read more of his other novels than try and find the other version. I would highly recommend this book if you love horror, sex, and grusome details. They would NEVER be able to make this into a movie!!
