* Faces Of Fear *
John Saul’s Faces of Fear
Plastic surgery is intimidating right?…or maybe a bit of fun? Well, well, well, certainly not after you read this one!
They (Alison, Rissa, and Conrad) seem to have it all…money, looks, and a step-dad/husband with charm, wits, and the references…did i mention lots and lotsah money! It looks appealing on the outside as well as on the inside and appears that all is perfect.
But then things turn out to be too good to be true.
Every dilemma, death, heartbreak, and reconstruction (and destruction) fit so perfectly into one another. Without one of these pieces this story just wouldn’t be whole.
…but the people in the story would be.
The devastation of required body parts are ripped off particular victims, who are very carefully chosen and then held securely for later reconstruction. Technology proves to work against humanity instead of working for it.
This book is a hell of a ride. Fasten your seatbelt!-it’s gonna be a fast and bumpy one!!
Best part is the original name for the killer: The Frankenstein Killer. How unique!
John Saul is suburb and never disappoints or dulls his readers, ever!
Excerpts:
Pg. 42- ‘Conrad felt the blood drain from his face. He knew. Oh God, he knew.’
Pg. 48- ‘As her tears flowed, she thought she could actually hear her heart breaking.’
Pg. 271- ‘Smarter than you, she wanted to whisper. I always was, and I always will be.’
* Magic *
You’ve got magic inside your fingertips.
It’s leaking out all over my skin, yeah.
Every time that I get close to you,
You’re making me weak with the way you look through those eyes.
But all I see is your face.
All I need is your touch.
Wake me up with your lips.
Come at me from up above, yeah.
I need you.
I remember the way that you move.
You’re dancing easily through my dreams.
It’s hitting me harder and harder with all your smiles.
You are crazy gentle in the way you kiss.
All I see is your face.
All I need is your touch.
Wake me up with your lips.
Come at me from up above.
…
All I see is your face.
All I see is your face.
All I see is your face.
