**Sick, Twisted, Perverted. This is an experiment in horror. Read the following reviews**<br> Damon Hutter is not your friend. He is a man you will hate. Unfortunately, he is the only man who can usher in the dawning of a new age with Cthulhu and the old gods taking back their throne. He is the only one who can do what needs to be done. He's tough, rough and violent.<br> That makes him perfect for the job. <b>***WARNING: This book is hardcore horror***</b>Review by Rev Fred NileBeyond Scary Rates this read as ... Outstanding effort in the by now drying well of the Cthulhu Mythos.<br> You wanted some Cthulhu, well Kiwi author Lee Pletzers delivers, let's sift through the omens. Lee Pletzers is taking one hell of a risk with this novel, his central point of view character isn't likable and to be honest is edging into hate territory through the course of the first block of the novel. There's a feeling during the middle section that Damon may add an additional "resurrection" theme to the book, but don't expect fluffy bunny outcomes. Damon is completely dislikeable but, and this is the important part, edges into almost anti-hero status. The risk of course is that inherently readers want a character they can relate to, someone that is ultimately good, however you aren't going to be latching on here. The danger is of course that the Writer will isolate the reader, take them out of the book, and ultimately deliver something that simply doesn't work. Pletzers thankfully pulls it off, and I was rocking out to the whole concept. You will be dragged along kicking and screaming as Damon cuts a bloody swath through the novel in pursuit of his personal fate.<br> Primarily the novel doesn't do what you expect it to do. In a normal narrative we would have Cultists trying to raise Cthulhu, a bunch of folk fighting to stop them, and ultimately a confrontation that can go either way depending on the Author's particular taste. What you get with Resurrection Child is a bunch of Cultists
