Little Brothers by Rick HautalaMy rating: 6 of 10 stars
Well it's difficult to review this book. Some parts were quite good and others were just awfuly treated.
The main character is a 12-year-old boy called Kip who was the lone witness of his mother's death (even if he doesn't remember plainly) five years before of this story. Everyone else thinks she was killed by homeless guy. The only person who knows differently is a alcoholic indian called John Watson that the true culprits are The untcigahunk or "Little Brothers".
This book goes for about 500 pages giving some information about the daily life of the main character, is rebelious older brother, his father and a to-be-lover and a couple of other minor characters.
In my opinion this book could have been cut to 300 pages novel. One thing is for sure the development of Marty (his older brother) is the only one that I took notice. Every other character don't evolve. Even the love of Kip's father begins to blossom and at the middle of the book she just dissappears without any information and reason. Why was she in it at all?
My other problem is a the ending, or the killing of the beasts. It was too easy without any damage to the main chararacters and everyone involved.
My advice? A true horror fan.
