I love D. M. Mitchell, have read almost all his books. LOVED THEM!!!! But Gareth was too stupid to live. His simpering, whining, idiotic, obnoxious self needed to just DIE ALREADY!SPOILER: Why wasn't he killed off? I don't think I would read a sequel, just because of him.Now a "Mouse" sequel ... Oh yes, I can see buying and loving that.  Although I'm certain D. M. Mitchell has plenty of new, and equally great books in his future.As for the rest of "The King of Terrors", it was well written as always, kept one guessing and engaged. Although missing were any likable characters, no one to truly connect to.  They were all rotten, but none as annoyingly so as Gareth.You know, come to think of it, I might read a sequel ... If Gareth were to die a long and painful death. Ya, that might be worth it. But it would be nice if the book had an endearing someone, maybe a dog or cat, something.
