From the internationally best-selling author, a chilling fresh spin on the classic horror novel • When the voices call, don't answer.
“In The Night House, the horror begins immediately. And it only keeps calling from there.”—Josh Malerman, New York Times best-selling author of Bird Box and Spin a Black Yarn
In the wake of his parents’ tragic deaths in a house fire, fourteen-year-old Richard Elauved has been sent to live with his aunt and uncle in the remote, insular town of Ballantyne. Richard quickly earns a reputation as an outcast, and when a classmate named Tom goes missing, everyone suspects the angry new boy is responsible for his disappearance. No one believes him when he says the telephone booth out by the edge of the woods sucked Tom into the receiver like something out of a horror movie. No one, that is, except Karen, a beguiling fellow outsider who encourages Richard to pursue clues the police refuse to investigate. He traces the number that Tom prank-called from the phone booth to an abandoned house in the Mirror Forest. There he catches a glimpse of a terrifying face in the window. And then the voices begin to whisper in his ear . . .
She’s going to burn. The girl you love is going to burn. There’s nothing you can do about it.
When another classmate disappears, Richard must find a way to prove his innocence—and preserve his sanity—as he grapples with the dark magic that is possessing Ballantyne and pursuing his destruction.
Then again, Richard may not be the most reliable narrator of his own story . . .

Interview: For crime thriller sensation Jo Nesbo, it all started with horror stories

Most of this book is very enjoyable, and had the adventure/journey feeling that I love in a story. The in-universe lore of "word magic" was fun, but felt a little bit lost in translation. The youth detention center is very similar to many of the group homes where I spent my teen years. I loved the character of Fatso/Jack, and the way he responded to people who attempted to dull his shine.
The weak point is the ending. It's got that obnoxious bookend of "none of this actually happened," because it was actually a story within a story, but then the ending kept going and going and ... I turned it off with almost an hour to go.
If you stop around chapter 23 or 24 (I think), this is actually a great book! The author got lost after that.
Great journey until the end.
