Unsettling. This is a wildly dysfunctional psychological horror, a disturbing family gothic tale that will at times turn your stomach.
There were moments when I became lost in the many dark details, the thick creepy weeds of erratic narrative. Just when I thought I knew what was happening . . . no, I didn’t. By the end of the novel, the scattered details came into clearer focus and made a lot more sense . . . albeit a tale that is quite sad, mangled, and bizarre.
I’d like to thank NetGalley and Tor Nightfire for an advanced copy of Sundial for my unbiased evaluation. 3 stars
