Move over Stephen King
1. Dezember 2009
Format:Taschenbuch
Move over Stephen King...if you want a well-crafted horror novel with a fresh persepctive, this book is it. You won't be able to put it down. The ancient war between the two alien races that colonized our planet continues in the blood lines of a quaint New Hampshire town, manifesting powerfully in two young boys, both gifted with psychic abilities. A sinister lodge society made up of the serpent descendents of the Annu masquerades as an elitist country club for the local well-to-do. Add in the war club of Chief Crazy Horse passed down from the Custer battle, a vision quest on the granite power mountain that rises over the town, and ancient herbal magic passed down through the lineage of Irish priestesses, and you have an unusual combination of elements that will keep you spellbound. Lake Loon was cursed by a murdered Abenaki medicine man centuries ago,and the dark evil it harbors infects the town. With his tight, crisp writing style, Walt Schnabel immerses you in his modern-day tale of darkness whose next stop, if not the twilight zone, is surely someday to be the big screen.

Great Find!!
6. Februar 2010
Format:Taschenbuch|Von Amazon bestätigter Kauf
Every now and then you get lucky and discover a gem. I found mine in BLOOD CLUB. I could not put the book down and finished it in a weekend. Mr. Schnabel's descriptions of the countryside and people of New Hampshire were so vivid that we're planning a N.H. visit this summer. The story premise had twists and turns throughout and a little surprise near the end. The only disappointment was that it had to end, however, I'm hoping there's a sequel.
Good Versus Evil in Small Town New Hampshire
29. April 2012
Format:Taschenbuch
With his debut novel, Blood Club, author Walt Schnabel captures not only the internal struggle of a man at a crossroads, but the unique experience that is life in small-town New Hampshire. The reader is brought along on a tale of good-versus-evil and a personal journey for Brian, our troubled protagonist. His journey will have a lasting impact not only for himself, but his son, wife and their collective existence in their newly adopted home-town.
That's because more bubbles beneath the surface in Barlow than meets the eye. Brian doesn't just see it, he feels it. Seeing his family becoming drawn into the discomfiting goings-on, he is compelled to investigate further. With the assistance of a local of Native American heritage, Brian embarks upon a quest to understand the strange undertones in town. Mr. Schnabel's juxtaposition of Native American themes against the behavior and attitudes of the exclusive 'inner circle' of townsfolk was especially well-done.
While the storyline is solid, the characters believable and relate-able, and the climax of the book a true page-turner, I think that this book would benefit from a more solid editing--I found several spots that could have used some tightening up, although it is important to note that this did not inhibit my overall enjoyment of the book.
Ultimately, I gave Blood Club five stars and the editor three; hence a four-star rating. If you live in New England, have ever been curious about small-town living, or are a fan of Stephen King, you will find Blood Club to be an engaging read that grabs you and holds you to the very last page.
