You might never see him but just you believe and beware when he visits on All Hallows Eve
By Inspector Gadget
I'd never heard of this book or of Norman Partridge (no relation to Alan) before coming across a display in the bookstore. I thought that the cover was just brilliant and I knew I had to get it right away.The story is about a redneck-ish town in middle America which has a horrific and surreal annual tradition. Every Halloween a Jack O'Lantern-type monster will rise from the cornfields and head for town. If he makes it to the church then he's won but with his jacket stuffed with candy and starving teenagers after him he's never quite made it that far.I must admit I had a bit of a problem with Partridge's narrative at first. The book is written in the present tense and addresses the reader personally. But after a few pages I got into it and the large chapters are so well written it comes across as some elaborate crossbreed of pulp and classic literature.It's brief and to-the-point and wastes no time on stretching itself thin. I find it ironic that there is a praising soundbite from Steven King in the first few pages. He claims that it packs more into its 170 pages than most bloated 600-page clunkers. Yeah, that's right, Steven. And who is the one who is churning out bloated 600-page clunkers?However, I still do wish it was a bit longer. I feel like there could have been a great 250-page book here rather than just a fleeting 170-page one. There is stuff in there that is begging for further description. Just who the hell are the Harvesters Guild and how does Sawtooth Jack come to life exactly?Either way, buy it and read it and like it for what it is and what it is not. There are plenty of overwritten books out there and I am glad to have finally found one that is diluted by a self-indulgent author.

Lean, mean and totally original
By Rachel
Let's face it, horror can be a jaded old genre and if, like me you have had an addiction to the horrific that spans more than 2 decades you see some of the same stuff going round and round. But every now and then, something like Dark Harvest springs up and surprises the hell out of you.This is good stuff and like nothing I have read before. Set in a small town that is run by a mysterious 'Harvester's Guild' who won't let anybody leave, we enter the story on halloween night. Here, all young men between 16 and 18 have been penned up and starved for 5 days straight. They are unleashed on the town in the evening of halloween to hunt down 'The October Boy', a shuffling horror with a pumpkin for a head.Armed to the teeth and not above setting about each other, the boys have to capture the boy before midnight and the one who delivers the killing blow gets to leave the town and start a new life. However, the october boy is crafty and doesn't exactly want to be killed off. Although the odds are stacked against him, if he can manage to sneak across town and reach the old church before midnight, he wins.And so starts a stalk and slash and race against time. humans revert to monsters and the monster may just be the most humane of them all. set aside some time to read this in one sitting. its a doozy and there is no wonder this won the covetted Bram Stoker award in 2006. Partridge is a rare new talent.

An exhilarating read
By lust_and_lunacy
I was looking for a good horror story to read after immersing myself in the dark world of H.P Lovecraft and stumbled across Dark Harvest. The premise is a town where every Halloween a creature called the October Boy has to make its way from the cornfields to the church whilst being hunted down by the young men of the town. Whoever kills the creature is allowed to leave the town and never look back, a luxury not granted to any of the town's other inhabitants. The story follows several characters including 16 year old Pete McCormick, the head of the Harvesters Guild and even the October Boy himself. I read the book in a day as I couldn't put it down, for anyone looking for a short but scary story look no further.
