Book Reviews of The 7th Guest: A Novel
Book Review: A fans must have!
Summary: 5 Stars
Wow, this book met all of my expectations. It is well written and the atmosphere is just awesome. It might be because I am a fan of the game, but this book is darned good! If you liked the game, but couldnt follow the story because of the messed up scenes, this book is very good at explaining everything. The characters are interesting and our favourite Doll and toymaker Henry Stauf actualy get a few chapters about himself before diving into the main story. I say this is a brilliant book of a brilliant game! Read this! /Henrik Sigeman
Summary of The 7th Guest: A Novel
Every child in town wanted one of Henry Stauf?s handcrafted toys?so intricate, detailed, almost magically lifelike. After a terrible illness claimed the life of each child who cherished one of the toys, Stauf retired to the seclusion of his mansion on the hill?perhaps unspeakably saddened by the puzzling deaths. Perhaps not.Years pass, and the Stauf mansion, slowly deteriorating, stands as a macabre reminder of the horror that swept through the town. Within its walls, Henry Stauf plans his final outrage against an unsuspecting world. What evil will the madman unleash? What fearful secrets does his mansion hold?
Six guests venture to the Stauf Mansion one desperate night, each with a private hell to escape, each certain Henry Stauf will be the instrument of salvation. Nothing could be further from the truth.
Only the seventh guest stands between their greed and the world's damnation!
