Also his "Carrion Comfort" novel. Thanks again, i'm glad I now know of an author similiar to my original favorite; Stephen King and look forward to trying out Simmons.

Carrion Comfort is excellent, ranks very high on the list of top vampire novels.
I have not read
A Winter Haunting yet, but I can tell you that it is somewhat of a sequel to Simmons earlier novel
Summer of Night which is the first book of his that I've read and it would tie as my favorite horror novel ever with Stephen King's
IT.
Song of Kali is the third book of Simmons that I've read and haven't read another novel quite like it, it it takes you into this dingy, creepy vision of Calcutta, India and a religious sect dedicated to the Hindu goddess Kali. The ending is one of the most frightening and heart-wrenching endings I've ever read.
Tell me what you think of
A Winter Haunting, I have a copy somewhere, I need to make it the next novel I read, right now I'm reading Robert McCammon's
They Thirst.
