Dan Simmons

I love this author for sci fi and horror. Steven King has said he is the best sci-fi/horror writer he's ever read.

I read the Hyperion series back in the day but haven't read anything else by Simmons. I was checking out some of his other works on Amazon when I saw the synopsis quoted below. LOL, I can see why King likes him [img]/images/graemlins/wink.gif[/img]

Summer of Night

A monstrous, timeless entity is devouring children. Adults either refuse to understand what is happening, or are themselves agents for the monster. A group of young boys, in uneasy partnership with an outcast girl, realize they must kill the creature before it devours them all
