Wood is the first book I have read by Robert Dunbar and I was very happy with it. I got it free during a promotion and only discovered it thanks to a horror website I follow. It was worth my time and is worth paying for if you haven't got it yet.The book is very descriptive and Dunbar has a good grasp of describing something in a way that helps you visualize it in your mind.The story follows a young girl and an old man as they come face to face with something that can only be described as pure evil. All the characters are nicely drawn and the side characters are also well done. There is one character on a bus that is so brilliantly drawn ("she had a face like a clenched fist") that you want something bad to happen to her.The end was also great, leaving things slightly open ended for a future installment. Overall, this book is worth the time of any horror fan.
