      Johnny Gruesome kept me reading late into the night. This is a fast paced horror novel that reads like an 80's slasher film. Johnny Grissom, dubbed Gruesome for his love of death metal is a hard rocking headbanger with a souped up ride called the Death Mobile. After Johnny is found dead in his car which was submerged in an icy river the police are unsure whether it was an accident or a homicide. What follows is a series of grisly murders that terrorize Johnny's hometown. This book was fast paced and well written. I would recommend this book to fans of Joe Hill.
