Summary: Wonderfully Creepy!
Comment: This is the first in a 6 book series. Michael McDowell can write a creepy book. The relaxed and languorous atmosphere of the South combined with a horrifying, yet mystical creature, who hides among them and settles in with them. Through the 6 book series you can really feel the passing of time, as some characters age and some of them die. The Caskey clan is truly dysfunctional and you are inexorably drawn into their lives. You'll have to scout the used book stores for this series, but it is well worth it. I re-read these books about once every 24 months. Don't confuse this Michael McDowell with others, he only wrote the Blackwater series, Katie, Gilded Needles, The Elementals, and The Amulet.

Summary: Haunting
Comment: I read this book about 20 years ago and have been haunted by it ever since. I was never able to finish the set and would love to own them all! An extrodinary read if you can fine it!

Summary: Outstanding!
Comment: I found the entire Blackwater Series totally engrossing and couldn't wait for each monthly installment. Michael McDowell is so clever in his writing and seems to know what thrills readers of horror and Boy does he deliver! I have been searching over 20 years for more of the same but without success. I have read all the other McDowell books and gave away as I thought Michael would keep writing such great books. Please Amazon find him for me!
