description: AllBooks Review's Lea Schizas writes that Think, Woodchuck is "the most chilling novel I have read in quite some time." Subterranean gloom suffuses this creepy tale of the implosion of a deranged mind. Fifteen-year-old Ian lives without electricity or water in a suburban house left to him by his mysteriously vanished parents. His grip on reality loosening, he finds himself adrift in a hallucinatory netherworld, plagued by phantoms—a menacing history teacher who seems to be able to read his mind and an old librarian whose books uncannily parallel his warped worldview. By turns mordant, macabre and poignant,Maxwell’s first-person narrative situates readers within the claustrophobic confines of his protagonist’s twisted head, making Ian’s demented logic understandable — though no less horrifying — as he follows it to a grisly conclusion. -KIRKUS DISCOVERIES
