OH. MY. GOD.
Well, then, that's me terrified of the moon!
I have never read a more thrilling book in my entire life. I finished this book on the plane from London to Norway and I was straight out crying. Yep. I was so scared, so freaked out, so sad and distraught. This book is absolutely terrifying. In some ways, it reminded me of the Doctor Who two-parter The Impossible Planet/The Satan Pit, which scares me to death even after so many years.

I was a bit hesitant about this book being written by a Norwegian author, as I normally don't like Norwegian books at all. That is also why I chose to read this in English rather than Norwegian, which is my native language. The translator has done a brilliant job. The writing is alive and flows well. I loved it.

Definitely read this book if you like creepy, twisted stuff. You won't regret it. You'll never look at the moon the same way again!
