Black Light by Patrick Melton, Marcus Dunstan, & Stephen Romano
3/5 Could it be my ADHD? I felt the noir-ish sentences dragged on and half of the analogies didn't make any sense to me even after rereading them multiple times. The prose at times seem a little redundant, especially when Buck was fighting the ghosts in his stomach. That being said, I do like the storyline and the concept. I can also see why they choose this medium as their output. There would be way too much CGI in a movie version of this and lots of it happens inside of the main character's body.
I liked the book overall, just wish they had cut back on the repetitiveness of pulling the ghosts and refined the analogies more.
