Suspense fans won't want to miss Connolly's A Time of Torment . It's gripping and gritty all the way through., John Connolly takes the reader kicking and screaming to places they probably didn't know existed . . . . If you love thriller mysteries with an air of the mystical, then you need to read A Time of Torment !, John Connolly writes with his always superb, poetic prose, and its beauty is in wonderful contrast to the subtle, and sometimes not so subtle (one bad guy has dentures made of razor blades), horrors he describes., This eerie thriller has made a forever-fan of me . . . . You may write, and I may write, but nobody else will ever, ever be able to write like Connolly. Our story is part of the Charlie Parker series, but I have not read any of the others and found I was able to hop into this story as a single read with no difficulty., The Charlie Parker series is my favorite series of all time. In any genre. Perhaps because it doesn't fit neatly into any one genre. It's gritty crime novels with supernatural elements and a mystery that spans across the entire series., John Connolly is one of the best writers working today . . . A Time of Torment may be his best work to date. And that is no small feat., There are a few authors whose novels are my own personal equivalent to comfort food. Stephen King is one; John Connolly is another.

Synopsis
"Connolly again displays his mastery at combining the hard-boiled with the supernatural." -- Publishers Weekly (starred and boxed review) Dangerous and driven private investigator Charlie Parker returns in the latest gripping thriller of internationally bestselling author John Connolly's series, in which ungodly fears haunt a strange and isolated community. Jerome Burnel was once a hero. He intervened to prevent multiple killings, and in doing so destroyed himself. His life was torn apart. He was imprisoned, brutalized. But in his final days, with the hunters circling, he tells his story to private detective Charlie Parker. He speaks of the girl who was marked for death, but was saved; of the ones who tormented him, and an entity that hides in a ruined stockade. Parker is not like other men. He died, and was reborn. He is ready to wage war. Now he will descend upon a strange, isolated community called the Cut, and face down a force of men who rule by terror, intimidation, and murder. All in the name of the being they serve. All in the name of the Dead King.

    It's on me for not reading the description of this being an ex-library copy. I was expecting it to be, but that's completely my fault. The product is exactly as described, in good condition and of good quality. Shipping was fast. Appearance good, no pages ripped and cover is not bent. It was sent in a bag instead of a box, though, which could have led to damage in shipping. Overall I'm happy and would buy from this seller again.

  • Such a talented author ought to be more popular

    I've been stretching out reading the Charlie Parker series since I am enjoying it so much I don't want to reach the end. If you like Stephen King, this is natural progression!

  • Cannot sum it up

    I am unable to read the book. It has so much dust and possibly cat hair on it that I couldn't read it. John connally is an exciting, excellent writer. I love his books
