Melissa Chung's Reviews > 666

This is the second book I’ve read written by Jay Anson. I really like his writing. Engaging and creepy enough to keep you wanting more. I definitely enjoyed this book more than The Amityville Horror. Maybe, it’s because I didn’t know anything about 666 before picking it up. A solid 4 stars!!

Keith Olson is a carpenter. His wife Jennifer is an interior designer. They’ve been married for almost 2 years. Jennifer has a very attractive older friend named David Carmichael who is an antiques dealer.

After the couple come home from an extended vacation, they discover a new house across the gully from their own. It surprises them that the house has been built so quickly while they were away. Keith goes to investigates and finds an old Roman coin. A few days later David comes over for dinner and Keith asks him to look into the coin. Find out what kind of coin it is and what it’s worth.

This is when all the creepy fantastic stuff starts happening.

The book is under 300 pages so definitely can be read in one or two sittings. I really enjoyed it. It’s main theme is mans free will and their choices. I love supernatural books, especially when the are about occult’s, religion and demonic in nature. If you are that kind of reader you will definitely enjoy this book.
