I read
The Sucking Pit recently and, yes, it's bad. But I enjoyed it nevertheless, mainly by virtue of its crappiness. It was endearing to read some crap after wading through yet another Anne Rice vampire yawnfest. It was a breath of fresh air. Short, to the point, crammed full of sex and violence. Come on, a pit where you can dispose of all your murder victims, you can't fault it. Gypsies, occult practices, sex, blood, gore. Loved it.
And as for the Sabat series, those books have to be read to be believed. A 'hero' who has to keep taking time out for a wank. I mean....wow. What kind of a central concept is that? Genius.
