I really enjoy Malfi's books, ever since reading his novella "The Mourning House". The prose in "Borealis" might not be quite as rich and full as "Mourning House", but this story is very creepy and very effective. Malfi's descriptions are full and visceral. The girl is terribly frightening, more because of what we don't know about her than what we do know. The ending is a little...different, but fans of Malfi probably expect this.I'm glad to see good horror is still being written. If you like Stephen King, Robert McCammon and Dan Simmons then you'll probably want to pick up this book.
