Helpful Score: 2
I want to start off by saying this: if you haven't yet read this book -- do NOT read any reviews. None. Notta. Zero.
You want - no, NEED - to dive into this story with as little information as humanly possible. Do not read what anyone else writes, do not read what I write, and absolutely do not take into account any opinions.
Just pick the book up, and get lost in the epic journey that awaits you.
I'm a rapidly growing Sigler fan; Alive marks the third book of his that I've read, and it certainly won't be my last. Sigler asks very specifically that no spoilers whatsoever be put any place where eyes may read them, and as I wholeheartedly agree with this request, I shall abide with my utmost ability. I truly wish I hadn't read others' reviews before beginning this book, as even the simplest of opinions can ruin it. Just trust me, here. You want to go into this one as innocently and purely as possible. Embark on this journey with the characters, learn with them, grow with them. One of the main things I'd like to commend Sigler on is his wonderful use of playing with the human psyche, pressing directly on all of those irrational and instinctual human fears...
You're scared of the dark?
This book takes you darker.
Afraid of small spaces?
The walls are closing in on you.
Alive has a life of its own.
(I cannot wait for the next two installments; I devoured this one in less than 24 hours and I'm craving so, so much more.)
