I think I described The Killing Kind as being a cross between Quentin Tarantino and Richard Laymon and I'd say Depraved fits that description as well. This book is downright brutal and... depraved.
Want to know what it is about? Sure you do.
Jessica, Hoke, Pete, and Megan have all wound up in the town of Hopkins Bend, Tennessee, by either chance or fate. But they may never leave. Hopkins Bend is a town of backwoods rednecks and even mutant rednecks. Worse than that is the fact that the residents of Hopkins Bend don't like outsiders and delight in torturing them and even eating them.
But perhaps what is more disturbing (or depraved) than the residents themselves are the acts that the desperate victims are willing to go through to survive.
If you love tales about rednecks, revenge, and even the supernatural then you could do worse than to pick this bad boy up. But you better brace yourself for the blood. I mean it. There's enough blood in this book that, providing you had the ability of spontaneous materialization, you could probably re-paint your house and possibly your neighbors with it. Just sayin'.
But you don't want to re-paint your house, do you? You want to read this book.
Pick it up here.
