I've read all of Hutsons books up until 1999 and I will carry on reading them. I developed a problem when I read Hutson that was gluey hand eye syndrome i.e hand stuck on book and eyes stuck in it. Compulsive reading, I can't put it down until it's finished. Oh, and he likes decent music too !!!

Mr Hutson, what can I say, you certainly no how to teel a horror story. Was anything left to my imagination, I don't think so.
I f you read one of Shaun's book don't eat for an hour before, or if you've got a weak stomach.
If you think this one is violent read Exit Wounds, graet story, real people,gangland wars, tummy churning horror. But you can't stop yourself turning those damm pages.

Quality book great taste in music. I love his descriptiveness, adds a new level to gun battles. Not afraid of leaving you hanging at the end of his books (Relics), Who needs a happy ending. I've never read anything as good as this it kept me guessing, it kept me hanging.

Bloody Hell! Literally.
Never have I ever read such a gory book. The way Hutson explains in such detail how the bullets pass through people's bodies! It's a superb story which has three story lines. Read more

Mad, bad and dangerous to read.
This book is akin to being being repeatedly punched in the mouth. Violent, weird and bizarre, it manages to marry the ultra-violent thriller with the in-your-face horror story that... Read more
