This is my first book by this author and I wasn't disappointed, although his gratuitous use of sex scenes seems to be his page filler gimmick. The story line doesn't take long to get started with the group of students taking the Ouija board results and suggestions a little too quickly to be believable in the context of the story line. There are enough twists throughout the book to keep you entertained and wanting to read further. The ending was a little disappointing as the Ouija board takes a back seat to other developments. Sometimes you can complain about a story moving too slowly, in this case it moved a little too fast with the characters will to accept a lot of things without really thinking them through thus moving the story very fast. If the occasion presents itself to read other books by this author I wouldn't hesitate to pick it up.
