WHEN THE DEVIL CLIMBS: Book Review



Image result for when the devil climbs


* * * * *


Holiday ham evokes memories of home and family. Sizzling 

bacon entices the senses. Lunch meat is commonplace for most 

luncheons. Most of us enjoy the salty flavor of pork. But how often 

do we think about the animal we eat? A pig is often thought of as a 

penned animal, docile for the most part, lazy and fat. They are

 often dirty, enjoying slop and rolling around in the mud. A few 

lucky pigs have even become treasured pets.  

But what happens when a pig goes feral. Or a group of them? 

Crazed eyes, grotesque snot and a shrilly whine might become your

 worst nightmare as they arrive to chew on your hide.

When The Devil Climbs by Drake Vaughn gives us a glimpse into Russ Grote’s world. A convicted felon, Drake works along others like himself, hanging billboard signs. The work is tedious and often dangerous. Electrocution and taking a nasty fall are particularly worrisome to the men. Working with harden criminals brings about its own set of problems. Tempers mount along with grudges. And it doesn’t help if the boss is abusive and treats you like crap. But this hardened group of men are up against a new challenge – pigs.  But not just any pigs, no these pigs have a taste for blood and will do anything to get it.

When The Devil Climbs will leave you thinking about that other white meat. Perhaps you won’t want to eat that bacon after all. Vividly descriptive, The Devil Climbs is a well-written belly churner filled with glorious detail.


A must read for die hard horror fans.
