It's an early McCammon novel and has its shares of flaws but overall it is a good read. It's an interesting premise to begin with, one that I thought sounded hoakey when I read the back cover but it held my interest when I read it. Good, solid characters.Has anyone read McCammon's The Night Boat? I found a copy at the thrifty (and bought it, of course), but I really don't know what to think after reading the back cover. Is it interesting?
