"Shudderville" series is similar to tuning in for a weekly episode of the "Twilight Zone", the "Outer Limits", or the "Nightstalker". All of these had an episode weekly and when you read "Shudderville" you are getting basically the same thing...an episode that will scare you, frighten you, yet keep you coming back for more.In this installment, "#3 The List", we are reintroduced to a few characters from previous `episodes'. At the beginning we meet Cassie again, friend of Sophie from book 1. Sophie lost her daughter and made a deal with Mandelbaum that did not turn out quite like she wanted. Cassie has just married someone she does not love. Sophie asks for her help with Mandelbaum and while they are meeting with him Cassie makes a change and asks for something for herself...not to be married to her current husband but to her one true love Ryan. And with a blink of an eye she finds herself in a car with Ryan who she is now married to, but as the old adage says, be careful what you wish for. Ryan had asked for immorality and that is what he got. He is trying to find a way to break the wish and Mandelbaum gave him a list with 3 names stating that one person on the list will be able to help him. When Cassie learns this she rightly gets upset as Ryan is what she wished for and she is not ready to give him up so soon but he is determined to end his endless cycle of days.Go on this journey with Ryan and Cassie and his quest to break his wish. You will be reintroduced to characters that you have seen before and the main question is...throughout the journey does Ryan get what he wants or does Cassie? Is Mandelbaum just having fun with this couple or will he keep his word? To get these questions answered and more you will need to pick up your own copy of "Shudderville #3". Mia Zabrisky is a talented writer that knows exactly what you, the reader, wants and she gives you enough that you will continue to come back time after time to get your chills and thrills.
