Review: Be Warned
Rating: 1 out of 5

The title of this review is no reference to the evil doings in the novella's fictional town. Instead it refers to the quality of the work, its length, and the ludicrous price attached to it. Fifty percent of the length of this digital download is dedicated to an interview with the author and promotions of his other work. This betrays the early days of digital books and poor business decision-making in the price/value equation. In terms of the novella itself, it is a terrible homage to Jackson's The Lottery and King's Children of the Corn. After thoroughly enjoying Crouch's Run this was extremely disappointing.
