The Kill Riff - David J. Schow Futura - (First published ) I wanted to like The Kill Riff.

The Kill Riff. by. David J. Schow. · Rating details · ratings · 23 reviews. Lucas dreamed it every night the glittering rockshow; ear-punching heavy metal music; gaudily costumed, outrageous performers; an insane mob that storms the stage. Kristen, his beloved daughter, dying, pounded bloody and broken by feet and fists. There is no horror as fans know and love it in David J. Schow 's novel The Kill Riff (Tor paperback published May ), despite it bearing the icon of Tor's horror line; this is a suspense thriller through and through. The most accurate blurb about is from Penthouse, that bastion of literary acumen, and it states the novel's high-concept succinctly: "Gives us the nightmarish psychology behind the systematic murders of a heavy-metal band.". Although Schow's dragon's-breath prose exudes nastiness, his operatic, posturing characters are more silly than stinging; and by making his hero a villain who abuses every woman in sight, he undercuts reader attachment to his already jerky suspense. A few sharp notes in this riff, then, but the tune as a whole is way out of key.
