Have you ever wondered what would happen if Scooby-Doo wandered into a Lovecraft novel? Then wonder no more because here it is. We can tell this book is based around the idea of the Scooby-Doo cartoons of the 70s. The kids solved a mystery of the lake creature but now it’s 13 years later, their adults, and they think they got it wrong. Their lives haven’t been the happy go Lucky joy you get from the animated cartoon. They’ve been hard and real. On is in an asylum, the studious member is not so studious anymore, and the dumb one isn’t dumb and isn’t who you think it is. And let’s not forget how special our pretty jock was. The way the author takes the idea of these characters in a whole new direction in new light makes for a very entertaining story. Yes, there is a dog but instead of a great dane and it’s a Weimaraner, and the very last sentence was a great read. The ideas all come together to make a fine thrilling novel. A little bit horror, a little bit nostalgia, but a whole lot of fun. After all, if it weren’t for these meddling kids who else would save the world.
