Author: Keith R.A. DeCandido
Sam and Dean Winchester go to the Bronx to investigate the haunting of a local rocker's house - as well as to investigate a series of gruesome Edgar Allen Poe-related homicides. One of these slayings even involves an Orangutan who kills two college students. We're introduced to some odd, memorable characters, there's plenty of humorous dialogue between the two brothers and the author manages to throw in some background information that isn't related in the show, such as how they can have cell phones service without bank accounts or valid credit cards, as well as why their father only told them some of the information he knew about the supernatural. The book also establishes a character I'm sure will be revisited in future books, another cop who is sympathetic to the hunters' cause.
Author DeCandido has that talent to capture the 'feel' of any media tie-in book he pens, whether it be STAR TREK to BUFFY THE VAMPIRE SLAYER. He does it so well in NEVERMORE that it comes off as one of the better 'episodes' of the two seasons of the TV show.SUPERNATURAL: NEVERMORE does not disappoint.
