Book Review of The Historian

This book is excellent, except for the ending. I usually don't get into scary novels, but was intrigued enough by the description that I was caught up into the spirit of it before I realized what it was about. This book was a little predictable at times but still contains enough plot twists that it'll keep you reading up to the end.

And that's the problem; the end of the story. I won't ruin it for you, but will enjoy the first 685 pages (yes, it's a long read, but well worth it, until the end). It's almost like the author was being pushed by her publisher to finish the book; which she did, but the ending is horrible from a literary perspective.
