Castaways by Brian Keene
‘Castaways’ is two hundred and eighty five pages of streamlined and action packed horror that had me gasping at how raw and visceral it is. If you’re squeamish in any way then several parts of this book will not be for you! Keene draws the reader into the jungle, strings them along a little bit and then… strings them along a little more… Just when the tension can’t get any worse, Keene throws you straight into a struggle for survival at its most primal (from both sides, monstrous mutant tribesmen have to eat as well!) where the only thing that is certain is the promise of a horrible death on the horizon.
Graeme’s Fantasy Book Review: ‘Castaways’ – Brian Keene (Leisure Fiction).


This book sounds fantastic. Brian Keene wrote it as a tribute to the late great Richard Laymon, whose style is supposedly copied for this novel and is also mentioned in the book’s dedication.
I truly cannot wait for this book, Brian Keene has entertained me with all his past novels and I don’t suppose this will be any different. February can’t come soon enough!
