About
Details
Crucifax debería ser reeditado, pues es una JOYA. ... An entertaining read about a bunch of teens who get sucked into hanging out with a mysterious stranger named Mace. Giving them drugs and booze, he soon has more influence over them than their family and friends. I didn't find this book at all scary, but there are a few disturbing scenes. ... This was a good, almost great horror novel by esteemed horror scribe Ray Garton
