All opinions are my own.Book Info: Genre: HorrorReading Level: AdultRecommended for: Fans of hard-core horrorMy Synopsis: Rocky Point, NY has quite a history – first a local preacher burned down a house of ill repute – with all the ladies and customers still inside. One of his descen...
This is a good example of American monster horror. It's set in small town US, starts with hackneyed pilgrim fathers, is set off by high school kids with a Ouija board, and completed by their thirtysomething selves. It's not original in any sense of the word, but it is bloody, creepy and solidly written.The club themselves are, though not likeable, plausible characters whose research into an finally confrontation of the monster manages the tricky feat of keeping interest and being character led.I...

Technically 4.5 but worthy of rounding upCemetery Club by J.G. Faherty is what some might consider a "buddy book" A group of high school friends who do almost everything together, especially hanging out drinking and smoking in their clubhouse, which just happens to be a crypt in a cemetery...hence, Cemetery Club. As per usual, they get themselves involved in something that they shouldn't have, but unfortunately this something isn't just your typical HS hijinks. What happens next leads one boy...
The town of Rocky Point has a very tainted past. Heinous acts of murder have plagued this community for centuries leading to an evil energy spawning beneath the soil. Twenty years ago, a group of four teenage outcasts believed that they had put an end to the evil below, but now in the present, this evil returns and spreads its seed throughout the townsfolk creating an army of zombies. The Cemetery Club must come together once again to wage war against the zombies and try to close the circle of e...
I was lucky enough to be awarded this ebook as a giveaway through librarything.com.Not my usual subject matter, I was a little cynical about reading a book about Zombies. Always up for something new, I gave it a whirl - and absolutely loved it!Marking time through the ages, the cemetery site is the scene of many acts of atrocity, each of which leaves it's mark on the earth and the town. Our four intrepid hunters, still scarred from their run in with the greys 20 years earlier, face a new and mor...
20 years ago four friends awoke an ancient evil, and only the Cemetery Club can stop it before the whole town ends up dead. Or worse.Rocky Point is a small town with a violent history - mass graves, illegal medical experiments and brutal murders dating back centuries. Of course, when Cory, Marisol, John and Todd form the Cemetery Club, they know none of this. They’ve found the coolest place to party after school - an old crypt. But then things start to go bad. People get killed and the Cemetery
I had the pleasure of receiving a early reviewer's ebook of this book through LibraryThing. This is a great, gory romp that provides detailed visual imagery for you to feel like you are right there with the zombies. A horror story that reminds you of a horror flick and has the ending of a 1980's slasher.
I was impressed with JG Faherty's "Cemetery Club". Not having read any of his books before, I have to say that I was pleasantly surprised with his work. His character development was as good as King or Koontz' and his ability to make the reader connect with those characters was outstanding. I was hooked from page one to a plot that was suspenseful, thrilling, and well-conceived. The novel reunites four high school friends 20 years after a hideous evil was unleashed on the town of Rocky Pointe, N...
This is a horror novel and it put me in mind of something reminscent of Stephen King. The premise is a small town with a hive of shadowy creatures called Shades that rise up every so often throughout the history of the town. The Shades can inhabit people and the people then become zombie-like, attacking and eating humans. They also thrive on fear and negative energy. There seems to be no predictions as to which humans will be posessed and which merely get eaten. 20 years ago, four teens who hung...
I won this book on Library Thing; this was the second book by this author that I've been exposed to. The first one was a YA novel, which was decent enough, but I felt it lacked a bit in certain areas. That is not the case with this book (an adult novel); from the moment I picked it up, I was hooked and finished it earlier than I'd expected. The writing was great, atmosphere, characters, etc. all engaging and kept me interested from beginning to end.My ONLY complaint (and it's a minor one) was th...
I received a copy of this book for honest review. 'Cemetery Club' is the story of a town with a blood-soaked history and four recently reunited friends who must find a way to stop the terrifying creatures they first awoke years before.This is a fairly simple horror story with all of the usual expected components present - gore, suspense, sex, etc. It's all very well done with a satisfying ending and as a result this was a page turner I finished in just a few hours. There's quite a lot of people
One of the advantages of writing a book is that other people send you their novels for free. And since you want to send your books to other authors too, it behooves you to pay it forward. The only problem is, when you read the book you are expected to write a review. And let me tell you, nothing is worse than telling somebody their book’s not very good. Writing is a very personal thing, and a book is, in many ways, a part of the author. Telling somebody their book isn’t any good is like telling
I've been reading a lot of JournalStone's authors recently and, by and large, I've been impressed. So far, I've really liked every title I've read and J.G. Faherty's CEMETERY CLUB is no exception.I'm not going to go to great lengths to type out a plot synopsis. Read the back-of-cover sell copy to get a better idea of what the book's about. I'll just briefly mention this novel follows in the footsteps of Stephen King's IT, Brian Keene's GHOUL, Gord Rollo's CRIMSON, Mary San Giovanni's THE HOLLOWE...
Review: What happens when a few friends hang out at a cemetery and decide to mess with things they don't understand? A great gore-filled supernatural thriller with the potential for film rights, Cemetery Club will give readers a good dose of scare for such a small book. It has a vaguely Stephen King-esque feel, a few well-developed characters, and a horde of grotesque aliens/zombies. I found the characters and dialogue realistic and entertaining, as was the story-line - although cliche at times....
I received an Early Reviewer copy through Librarything.If this was made into a movie it would of course be a horror movie with all the gore, ancient legends and creatures you could imagine.This is a story of friends just hanging out at the cemetery, drinking, smoking and maybe dabbling in things they really don't know about, and what the consequences will be. This was an engrossing and well written book.
The Cemetery Club by JG Faherty. The story is about four 16 year old kids who hang out in the Cemetery and call themselves The Cemetery Club. One day they accidentally unleash an ancient evil in the form of small monsters that look like aliens on the small town of Rocky Point. These creatures are vicious and spread their evil by climbing inside people’s mouths and turning them into zombies. The four kids defeat the evil but one member of the club spends 20 years in an insane asylum while another...
Cemetery Club by J.G. Faherty is a book about a group of teenagers from a small town called Rocky Point. The teenagers did some terrible things in their past. As adults they have to come back to Rocky Point and put things right again.I was thoroughly engrossed in this book. This was an extremely frightening read. The story kept me guessing the whole time. "The Cemetery Club" is a book about how a towns deathly secrets combined with the supernatural come back to haunt them. There some truly frigh...
This was a fun sort of a B movie story. An original take on the ever popular zombie genre. Fast paced and action packed. I have to say I'm quite impressed with Journalstone publishers, their slim volumes seem to be interesting, original, good looking and well edited. The horror genre needs this.
