NIGHT LIFE
Night Life is Ray Gartons sequel to Live Girls. I purchased this book with the highest of expectations. I enjoyed Live Girls and felt the sequel couldn't miss.
I was wrong. The sequel was extremely weak. The character development was poor. With the exception of Gavin Keoph and Karen Moffett, we never get the feel of the other characters in this book. (Even the two PI's arent that well fleshed out.)
O.K we know Davey Owen. Right?
How about Mr. ... Read More
Rating: - Worthy sequel to Live Girls
Was this book as good as Live Girls? No, but how could it be, Live Girls is a horror classic, not only one of my favorite vampire novels, but one of my favorite novels period.
I really enjoyed catching up with these characters nearly 20 years later, even though some of them wouldn't survive. Ray Garton has built on the facinating world he created in Live Girls, and I hope he really continues writing novels set there.

Rating: - Great sequel to the fantastic novel 'Live Girls'
"Night Life" isn't quite as good as its predecessor, "Live Girls", but it's still great. I almost couldn't put it down. Usually that's an exaggeration. People say "I couldn't put it down", but they don't mean it literally. But with "Night Life" I read the entire book in one day. It was that gripping.
I'm a big horror fan, but I'm not specifically interested in vampires. I'll read a vampire book by an author that interests me. Garton is just fantastic, so horror fans should read his books ... Read More
Rating: - A worthy sequel to a classic horror novel
NIGHT LIFE is the sequel to Garton's memorable 1987 paperback original LIVE GIRLS, published by Pocket Books at the end of the "horror boom" of the late 1980s. Described in blurbs as "The most nightmarish vampire novel I have ever read" by Ramsey Campbell, and as "gripping, original, and sly" by Dean Koontz, LIVE GIRLS is one novel that nearly lives up to the hype of its cover copy.
Set in a gritty urban landscape of New York City's Time Square, and exhibiting an overt sexuality not common at the ... Read More
