Saul shivered in the cold and dark and forced himself to remember details of a spring morning – golden light touching the heavy limbs of willows by the stream, a field of white daisies beyond the stone buildings of his uncle’s farm.Ĭarrion Comfort blew me away. Saul Laski lay among the soon-to-die in a camp of death and thought about life. But this year things are not going according to plan…
Each year they meet to discuss their ongoing campaign of debauchery and slaughter. But he will soon fall into the clutches of an evil far older and greater than the Nazis themselves.Ī rare few individuals have the Ability – the psychic power to influence the mind of others. Simple as that’.Ĭarrion Comfort won the Bram Stoker Award, The Locus Poll Award for Best Horror Novel, The World Fantasy Award for Best Novel and The August Derleth Award for Best Novel in 1990.Ĭaught behind the lines of Hitler’s Final Solution, Saul Laksi is one of the multitudes destined to die in the notorious Chelmno extermination camp.
