Helpful Score: 4
Brian Keene is one of my favorite authors. He has a gritty realism in his writing and main characters who are easy to sympathize with, and this book was no exception to this. Dead Sea has alot of gore and action -- reading it was like watching a late-night R-rated horror movie. But while I enjoyed the book, the ending seemed flat and depressing.
I've read a couple of other Brian Keene's books, and they have all shared these same traits--gritty, down-to-earth characters, non-stop movie-type action, and a tone of hopelessness and depression that makes me wonder what was the point. Have you ever watched a great action, special-effects movie that you are really enjoying, but you keep thinking 'cool, but where is this going?' That is Dead Sea.
