into the Fire - I am a huge richard laymon fan owning all but a couple of his books,so when i saw INTO THE FIRE on Amazon i was amazed & thrilled that i had possibly missed one of his books.I ordered it at once & eagerly awaited its arrival.To my profound disappointment,on opening my package & reading the write up,i discovered that this book was actualy THE GLORY BUS .I know that i should of read the description of this book before buying it,but i was so excited to see it that i forgot.I feel that Amazon should of stated that this book was also known under its origanal title.I do feel slightly misinformed.
new laymon book - i have some wonderful news for laymon fans.about a week ago my wife and i were in one of those thrift shops and on one of there bookselves i found a laymon novel. i looked inside the book and found out that it was nothing like any of the other books. i looked on the web but they didn t seem to mention anything about it. i was puzzled. it s called Vera i think that it is out of print. perhaps one of Laymon s earlier works. i am reading the book and i am sure that it different. this isn t a joke.i feel very excited, i wonder if i could sell it?
Con - I opened my package eagerly and then went on to read what the book was actually about. I thought Hold on I ve read this ! This is The Glory Bus ! How so bitterly disappointed I am. I m a huge fan of RL and have all of his novels, yet here I was led to believe that the pre-ordered book was actually a new spine tingler ! Amazon SHOULD state that the novel was previously written under a different title, as with Amara.I really feel conned and cannot understand why Amazon can t even display the detail of the novel, so those of us that have bought The Glory Bus can leave this novel alone.I will definately be returning it.Sorry Amazon, you re a great service but unfortunately not on this occassion.
The Glory Bus renamed! - Although I m a big fan of Richard Laymon I m only giving this a 3 out of 5 because I bought this book thinking it was a new novel and it is actually The Glory Bus under a different name.
