Review: Dark and ultimately sad

I'm not even sure how to describe how I feel about this book. The main character, Frank, notices some dead spots on his body, has some medical tests done to see what they are, and begins his seesaw between dreams and reality.There was certainly the element of horror, but the way the dreams, physical and psychological decline were presented was the thing that had me anxiously turning pages. Frank's dream progressions and supposed dream manipulation left me feeling as if I needed to hit the "reset" button on my brain.I wouldn't be me if I didn't mention the delightful lack of editing issues. I love it when a book is so well written that there is nothing to pull me out of the story.Bottom line: this guy has the most incredible imagination. The book is bizarre. It's also terrific. The ending made me sad, even though it made sense in the light of events. Wow.Definitely recommend to fans of horror and psychological messed-up-ed-ness.
