Each of the characters was interesting and unique and I thought the idea of them having to overcome their own personal nightmares made great reading. The story unravelled at a break-neck pace, it was suspenseful and exciting and I liked the idea of Jenny and her friends becoming embroiled in a game which they had to win to save their lives. The trilogy started promisingly enough and I think that 'The Hunter' (book 1) actually did make quite a strong start. I don't want to hear every single little detail so I did find that I was skipping over pages at times. I prefer the horror to be slightly more subtle and not so in-your-face. And frankly, I found bits of 'The Forbidden Game' a bit too creepy for me! Which is not to say that others wouldn't love it.
I think my main problem is though that I enjoy the paranormal but I'm not such a big fan of those books which have quite a heavy horror slant.

I am a massive fan of both the books and the TV series, so I've recently been trying out some of her other stories. Now, I've mentioned before what a huge fan I am of L.J. I've certainly been interested in checking many of these authors out that I missed the first time around. I think it's great that the popularity of the paranormal/supernatural genre has breathed new life into a lot of authors who you could say were ahead of their time. This is another re-release as the trilogy was originally published in 1994 but it's now been repackaged by Simon Pulse and brought out for a new audience.
This volume contains The Hunter, The Chase and The Kill.
