THE SIGHTING, by Christopher Coleman

    


Horror -- 3 1/2 stars

The Sighting - Book 1

Danny Lynch runs on the beach every morning.  One of those mornings a creature walks out of the ocean and Danny's life changes forever.  To some, the creature is a god--a god who appears every fourteen months.  And every fourteen months, someone disappears. ----- Mr. Coleman manages to pack a a few surprises into this short, 108 page novella.  The monster is a bit of a cookie cutter entity, but the circumstances around it are original.  Danny leads the story, and the secondary characters are equally fleshed out and fully integrated into the result.  If you grew up watching Friday late night horror TV, this book will be like coming home.
