Having read Bentley Little's previous works and having been chilled to the bone by "The Store", it was with great anticipation that I started "The Town." I kept reading and, having paid good money for the book, kept on reading. And I kept wondering, when is something interesting going to happen? To any reader looking for a spooky, fast-paced horror story that will make you keep the lights on at night, I recommend that you choose another book. This one was just flat, lackluster and, ultimately, boring.
