Praise for Hell is for the Children:


"Think about the word "villain." I guarantee what you're imagining doesn't compare to what Riser's got in store for you with this book. Disgusting, and without a scrap of compassion, the monster in this story is quite real. He might live down the street... but God help us if he does..." - L. B. Goddard, The Monsters Next Door
