Product Review
OFFSPRING isn't a book you pick up to relax. It's reading on the edge of your seat. Horror writer Jack Ketchum is a true master of his craft. --Maine Sunday Telegram, April 15, 2007
The story is suspenseful, fast-paced and intelligently written.. --Publisher's Weekly
Â"Only a novel of expert articulation and emotional truth can cast such a long shadow, and KetchumÂs is bothÂ" -- Publisher's Weekly on OFF SEASON
Â"WhoÂs the scariest guy in America? Probably Jack Ketchum, the outlaw horror writer whose terrifying first novel is finally available uncut from Overlook Connection Press. That would be Off Season: The Unexpurgated Edition.. -- Stephen King, Entertainment Weekly
Product Description
Jack Ketchums original novel of cannibalism in Maine, Off Season, was first met with a lot of controversy when it was originally released in 1980. However sales of over 250,000 mass market editions made this first time novelist a major force in the horror and suspense genres. Now OFFSPRING, the sequel to Off Season, has been released in this unique edition. Just when you thought the horror of Off Season was vanquished in their first outing, The Family, lives on years later continuing to terrorize the coast of Maine. And their zest for life, and yours, continues on in The Family tradition. THE LEGEND LIVES ON! The local sheriff of Dead River, Maine, thought he'd killed them off ten years ago a primitive, cave-dwelling tribe of predatory savages. But somehow, the clan survived. To breed. To hunt. To kill and eat. Now the peaceful residents, who came to Dead River to escape civilization, are fighting for their lives.
