Strong Bones
By Robert J. Peterson“Peterson’s tale strives to enshrine all that was magical about growing up in the ’80s. He laces his narrative with mentions of favorite films, toys, video games, music, and fashion, much like Ernest Cline does in Ready Player One (2011). While primarily being a Stephen King–style panorama of a town gripped by horror, Peterson’s story also feels like a cautionary middle-grade tale … A magical killer and ’80s pop culture headline this crowded but engaging horror tale.”
—Kirkus Reviews
