Chelsea Cain may well be one of the better mystery writers out there that gets way too little exposure. The Archie Sheridan/Gretchen Lowell series (this is book 5) are some of the best serial killer - detective novels around. Each novel stands on its own yet still part of the fabric of the bigger universe that Cain is creating.
In the beginning of this installment Detective Archie Sheridan is still in recovery but off of the pain killer addiction that had plagued him in the prior novels. Pain killers he needed to deal with the torture and mutulation at the hands of Gretchen Lowell.
For her part Gretchen is locked away under mental care as they try to find out why she is who she is.
The bond between the two is far more than that of cop and killer, they find that they may be the only two people who understand one another. This relationship lays at the background of this particular mystery but like any good virus, infects the story as a whole.
What Cain has done best, besides the true twists and turns of the mystery itself which she fills with more excitement and gore you have not seen since Hannibal Lecter, is develop the characters in her novels and at the forefront of the characters is Sheridan and Lowell.
This novel, quietly, may be the best mystery you will read this year and then you will want to read the prior four. Do it, you won't be dissapointed.

In my opinion, this is one of the best albums to come out in the past few years.  There are awesome riffs, melodies, and hooks everywhere on this album.  The lyrics are brilliant and the music is equally stunning.  It's not like the first album, it's much better, more substance! You must get this album!!!!!!!!!!!!

This was by far one of the best movies that came out this year. To refer to the above comment: The movie really isn't supposed to be that scary. It's a drama. You can throw in some comedy in there too.  John Malkovich was awesome. You can't deny that he is one of the most underrated actors around. And Willem Defoe rocks. Must see movie if(Big If) it comes to a city near you. THe most surprising thing about this movie is that Nicholas Cage produced it. Never would have thought that this good of a movie would have Cage's name linked to it.

One of the year's best films so far. Al Pacino at his best and the awesome talent of Robin Williams combined with Christopher Nolan's precision direction will keep your finger away from the pause button. MUST SEE!

The album was deffinately one of the best I've heard thus far this year. I've only been a fan for about a year but I still listen to all there stuff. It has a different sound and feel to it. Now when I say feel I mean that adrenallin feeling you get when you hear a song that makes you move. I tend to dance in my seat when I hear "Paralyzer". Over all, I can't say that this was their best album but it deffinately wanting more of their music. I recomend to to ANYONE who listens to bands such as, Stone 12, Linkin Park, Three Days Grace, Evanescence and so on. This is also a great album for a party.

Twice Upon a Yesterday is one of the funniest films I have seen this year! It is witty, romantic, charming and a must see! If you enjoy British comedies and if you like "Sliding Doors" you will LOVE this movie! =)

Without any question one of the most thrilling albums of this or any year. Grant Arnow`s vocals will take you back to Journey and Queensryche and a number of other great 80`s performers. The band as a whole is marvelous, and that`s an understatement. Buy this album now and tell your friends. If these guys make it, we will have been there first. One more time: This is a truly great surprise[think Boston,Pump,Back in Black,Appetite for Destruction].

4 1/2 Stars + Minor Masterpiece

Maybe the best horror film of the year, though the year is not over yet. It will land in the top three, no doubt. Seen this at the theater, loved it! Even better the second time around. Nothing ground breaking here, just good old fashioned dread by the buckets full, done bloody right! See it!

Absolutely amazing, a masterpiece. De "puta madre". Its not easy listening but the effort worth it. The album of the year with no doubt. The first album was fantastic but this one is even better... A lot of styles in one album and a composition and awesomw execution. You have to listen 4  or 5 times entirely but you won't regret.

One of Iron Maiden's best in the last few years, (but lets face it...everything they put out is good).  Since the day this was released over a year ago, (as of the writing of this review), in early September 2015, there has scarcely been a day that has gone by where I haven't listened to something off this CD! (Saw them live on opening night for this tour, too!)
Even more impressive is Bruce Dickenson's recovery from head and neck cancer. What a comeback statement!
Highly recommended for any fan of Iron Maiden. ...And if you're a fan, but pick and choose what you listen to, then I recommending this one being one that you give a listen to.

Like the title to my reviews says, this is one of the best books I have read this year! I absolutely loved it, and eagerly await the next book in the series.

Definitely one of the albums of the year. I listen to it non-stop. It's basically very 80s music (synthesiser, keytar and Volkswagen GTI) with a definite 90s house twist. It sounds great especially track 4  "Hypnotize" where you feel that you're back in 1986 and yet it  sounds brilliant. Do not hesitate, buy this album, you will not regret it!

Recently I saw some critic's best-of lists from the Noughties, and I was very surprised that none of them included this work. This is not only one of the best of the last decade, but one of my favorite films of all time. I can literally watch it over and over again and never feel bored by it. Yes, as another reviewer mentioned, it does require some work in that many technical terms are used and never explained, and the level of period detail verges on the neurotic- but this is part of what makes it great.
