Advantages: Well written and interesting read Disadvantages: none
...Background:
My boss has been singing the praises of P.J. Tracy for the past year. So under considerable pressure I finally relented and decided to give it a go. I am always conscious when someone recommends an author to you that opinions vary and what one person loves anything may loathe.
The Author:
This was a complete shock to me for a start. A book written by two authors! In this case it was a mother/daughter combination of Traci and PJ Lambrecht. I'm so glad I found this out after reading it otherwise I probably wouldn't have bothered, as I would have expected the book to be very disjointed.
This was their first best selling thriller. These were quickly followed by three more also best sellers, 'Snow Blind', 'Dead Run' and 'Live Bait'. All sharing this successful idea of two related writers.
The story of the book...

As you may have noticed I am a little biased towards the "wow it's great" side of things. Don't worry though. I hated the game to start with.

You are Link (at least you are if you stick with the default name) Link is a boy who has been brought up in a small farming community in the forest. One fine day crazy things start happening. The sky opens up and a bunch of dark monsters fall from it, the local children are kidnapped by them, along with you and your best friend. Luckily you have been blessed by the gods with a little more...

...I am Legend was the 2007; sci- fi horror adapted from the 1954 Francis Lawrence, and a remake of the classic The Omega Man. The film starred Will Smith, in what was to be his first horror film. Opening in late 2007, the film grossed well over $500 million worldwide.
Having heard mixed reactions to the film I figured I had to watch it for myself to see what all the fuss was about, having not see the Omega Man, I am Legend was a totally new film for me, I didn't no what to expect and didn't no the general backdrop of the film. Having seen the film I understand why people had such mix reactions about the film, however I thought it was one of the most decent horror films to come out for a while, and hopefully by the end of this review you will understand why.
Plot:
