It always puzzles me when I see a Laymon paperback, and there's a blurb from someone like King or Straub on the front cover, who (Say what you will about their own books) has demonstrated you know, an ability to generate MOOD and show empathy for the characters that they're putting through the wringer, saying how great Laymon's stuff is, and then, you know, read the actual books and....yeah.
I stopped trying a few years back. He's got this strong reputation in 'Horror Circles' though, that....puzzles me.
