The Exorcism of Winchester House door Douglas Wynne

Good book. It was a little hard for me to stay focused, but that could have been a me problem. Really enjoyed it in the end.

The author lost me somewhere around the scientist cultist ritually masturbating while killing a pigeon.

His Own Devices door Douglas Wynne

Years ago, I heard a bunch of my students discussing how much fun Minecraft was and decided to give it a shot. I quickly learned that my brain’s pathetic left hemisphere didn’t possess the engineering skills necessary to get much out of it.

If you told me back then that the same game would one day be a major plot element in one of the most thrilling and emotionally impactful novels I’d ever read, I would’ve simply laughed and gone back to getting my ass kicked at Call of Duty.

Now, though, I’m all types of excited for everyone to read this book I’ve been raving about for almost two years that didn’t technically exist.

His Own Devices isn’t just a techno thriller or a clever merging of horror and modern technology. It’s a story whose themes and characters grab you from the first page and absolutely refuse to let go. If you’re not able to read the book in one 24-hour sitting, then you’ll be thinking about it during the day and dreaming about it at night.

Thankfully, the only side effect will be an unshakable desire to explore the book’s characters and their world again…
