174. Title & Author: The Haunted Air (A Repairman Jack Novel Book 6) by F. Paul Wilson (415 pages)
Genre: Fiction—Thriller & Science Fiction
Completed: 8 January 2011
Summary & Review:
Two brothers who run a psychic racket enlist Repairman Jack’s help to get even with a rival psychic who has been trying to run them out of town. While completing the job, Jack realizes the brothers have a much bigger problem: their house is possessed by the spirit of a child murdered during a sacrificial ceremony by a group who believe the ritual leads to immortality.
This was a good entry in the Repairman Jack series. The story was fast-paced and complex enough to be interesting without becoming a convoluted mess. While the Science Fiction aspects of Wilson’s series may not be for everyone, I am enjoying the developing mythology and I look forward to seeing the conclusion of it in Book 15, set to be published this fall.
Rating: 8.5

Sounds like a good X-Files!
